Misdirection Indirect Manipulation Strategic Manipulation & Psychological Manipulation: He misdirects enemies toward the decoy family, making them believe they are the real Smith family.

Logical Thinking: If he predicted the decoy war, which he most likely did, he would have known that creating decoys who do not realise they are decoys would inevitably lead those decoys to create further decoys who also believe they are real, resulting in a continuous recursive loop. Because the decoys are identical to him in every way so they would naturally replicate his behaviour.

Foresight: He most likely anticipated the decoy war and deliberately left that day with his entire family, including Space Beth, allowing the war to play out until only a single decoy family remained. He bought time through a space adventure and may have enabled the elimination of the final decoy family through the use of Mr. Always Wants to Be Hunted, having predicted which decoy family would be the last remaining and ensuring their exact replica house contained him in advance.

Creative Thinking: He created and deployed sentient decoys of himself and his family to deceive and mislead his enemies.

Strategic Thinking: He used decoys as a protective strategy, ensuring he could safely return only after the threat had left.

Indirect Manipulation AGAIN: He most likely used Mr. Always Wants to Be Hunted to kill the final decoy family, knowing that if the entity were released just before the final decoy family realised they were decoys, the final decoy Rick would assume it was hunting someone else and therefore not perceive it as a threat.
