I do think the underlying point was fairly core to the robust agent thing: you want policies for achieving your goals that actually work. “Getting upset in situation X” might be a good policy, but if you’re enacting it as an adaption-executor rather than as a considered policy, it may not actually be adaptive in your circumstance)
