The britannian paradox is a historic situation where in a Roman britannian governor uses the entire britannian Roman army to attack Rome, but while doing so leaves Britannia to rot.

When this happens he loses all his support back home and can't afford to pay his large army(which is the only thing giving him the ability to take Rome).
The britannian paradox played out often, but as Hegel said, all we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history.

When you say you want to play a game, any game, but your friends say no to that game. This is also true when your friends say that they want to play a certain game but you don't want to play that game. Thus, the I don't want to play paradox.
Person 1: Yo, dude wanna play Roblox?
Person 2: Naw bro lets play some Terraria.
Person 1: Dude, I don't want to play Terraria.
Person 2: And I don't want to play Roblox.
Person 1 : Then what else do you want to play?
Person 2: I don't know. And I don't want to play what you suggest.

A common tragedy amongst Looter's when faced with overwhelming amounts of loot , supplies etc they're limited by the quantity of things they can carry. They are forced to leave some loot behind despite wanting all of it. Usually when faced with the Looter's Paradox people are troubled by deciding on what to take and feel uneasy leaving things behind. (Most commonly applies to video games).
After that base raid in dayz I was faced with the Looter's Paradox after finding ludacris amounts of loot.

The sum of two singular expressions which intuitively makes sense but the PLURAL is never conclusive and because of that in the first place both SINGULARS ARE INACCURATE to reach the PLURAL which is there where the paradox formation occurs.

E.9 A.15 I.22 T.27 D.27 O.28 R.30 H.33 F.35 S.38 C.38 U.40 G.40 L.42 W.42 Q.42 N.45 P.45 B.46 Y.47 K.51 J.52 M.53 V.66 X.68 Z.72

In this example the SUMMATIONS individually of EACH CIRCLE comes very close in EQUALING TOTAL DEGREES IN A CIRCLE but the PLURAL itself is 153 DEGREES OFF.
CIRCLE.179 CIRCLE.179 CIRCLE CIRCLE.358

CIRCLES.217

THE PARADOXICAL SUMMATIONS of CIRCLE in the SINGULAR form does not lead to the SUMMATIONS in the PLURAL FORM.

The PARADOXICAL SUMMATIONS CIRCLE CIRCLE.358 almost equals the number of DEGREES in a CIRCLE by using the two PLURAL taken each ELEMENT SEPARATELY IF you counted each CIRCLE as a DEGREE it indeed would EQUAL 360 DEGREES as if counting the TWO DEGREES OF FREEDOM.
