Beyond this, though, refusing to compare stuff just looks, to me, unnecessarily “passive.” It looks like it’s giving up an opportunity for agency, for free. Recall that if you refuse to choose between two lotteries, God tosses them to his dog, Fido, and chooses the one that Fido drools on more. If you’re indifferent between the two, then OK, fine, let Fido choose. Incomparability, though, is not supposed to be indifference. But then: why are you letting Fido make the call? Why so passive? Why not choose for yourself?
Maybe you want to be aligned to/corrigible to Fido. In such a case, passivity seems exactly like what we want, so that you allow Fido to choose instead of imposing some unwanted will.
