George Stigler與Becker在「不要爭辯偏好是什麼」(De Gustibus Non
Est Disputandum)一文中,假設人的偏好函數是穩定的,效用函數在不同時點仍然是相同的,即便對於已經累積了不同存量的上癮資本、社會資本、與廣告資本的不同個人,彼此間的效用函數仍然「相同」。或至少,不仰賴效用函數的差異來解釋彼此之間行為的差異。Stigler與Becker所採用的是擴展效用函數,而非次效用函數(subutility function)---傳統上僅包括財貨與勞務的效用函數。

Becker批評經濟學、社會學、歷史、以及其他領域,每當遭遇難以解釋的現象時,便已近乎任意的方式歸因於偏好與價值的變動,而此種方法得出的結果常對瞭解實際現象的原因與過程沒有太大幫助。

(day GOOS-ti-boos nohn est dis-poo-TAHN-dem) Latin for “There’s no disputing about taste.” Another version of this saying is “There’s no accounting for taste.”
由此,另一译名是,无需考虑偏好。
