I honestly don’t think anyone actually knows. It feels like someone stumbled upon a weird biological hack. There isn’t any reason that I’ve seen that makes any sense at all. I don’t even know what would be involved in doing a scientific study of this. Hypnotism is already extremely hard to study in humans because some of the effects make no sense based on our conventional understanding. Studying hypnotism in an animal that can’t be interviewed about what they felt would be so much harder.
