I agree with this. If the key idea is, for example, optimising imitators generalise better than imitations of optimisers, or for a second example that they pursue simpler goals, it seems to me that it’d be better just to draw distinctions based on generalisation or goal simplicity and not on optimising imitators/​imitations of optimisers.
