Roman Malov comments on Visual demonstration of Optimizer’s curse

[Roman Malov]

So, $U\left(x\right)$ is a random variable in the sense that it is drawn from a distribution of functions, and the expected value of those functions at each point $x$ is equal to $V\left(x\right)$. Am I understanding you correctly?

[TheManxLoiner]

Sounds sensible to me!
