Fish and bear paws might be attainable together, but there are things that only allow a choice between two.
For example, we often notice some people around us who love to take petty advantages; their careers rarely prosper. They get pushed further aside as time goes on.
It's not that they aren't smart, or that their abilities are lacking, but they've developed a habit of taking petty advantages. After others interact with them once or twice and suffer losses, they'll avoid dealing with such people next time or be on guard against them.
Imagine this: there is a cooperation opportunity. The other party thinks this person loves to take petty advantages, cooperating will surely involve all sorts of scheming. They decide it's better to find someone else.
During company dinners or team exercises, people tend to keep their distance from such individuals.
