So we both agree that for the caveman to survive, he needs to be able to go "arghh.. scawey!" but such a reaction is independent of whether the caveman believes he's running from a lion, or a bunch of goblins hiding beneath the skin of what appears to be a lion. In essence, the caveman's survivability was independent of what he believes to be true.
