According to Vitalik Buterin, the concept of nonlinearity in utility functions in monetary contexts is more relevant to betting scenarios than simply distinguishing between 'preference' and 'better'. He uses the example of betting in lottery tickets with a minuscule chance of winning $1 million to illustrate this point.
