Differences in perception don’t have to mean fundamental differences in anticipation. A good Himba scientist and a good Western scientist would expect the same distribution of wavelengths in light coming from the sky.
Good point, and I didn’t think of that when I said I couldn’t see making your beliefs pay rent was of any use here. Of course, a Himba scientist and a Western scientist might still say, “We know the wavelength of the light diffracting off the sky. But is it blue or black?” This may just be a result of how an algorithm feels from inside.
