and who is happier in the end?... the person who can explain it all away with ease and be happy and content? or the person who cant?

I think this sums it up. For some, (colin) the answers are not easy to come by and satisfactory to their intellect, while for others, the answers they find are.
If Colin is content with his own answers and this creates 'happiness' in his life and thoughts, so be it. If someone believes that 'everything happens for a reason' and yadda yadda and this makes it easier for them to take the tough times, that's a good thing.
I always thought of the 3-fold law in the respect that all action comes back to you in 3 ways, in the physical realm, in the intellectual realm, and in the spiritual realm.
Everything you do affects you tangibly, intellectually, and spiritually be it negative or positive.
So for me, it's not a matter of counting....
And yes, I do believe it's the intention behind the action that counts.
