By “TDT reasoning”—I know, I know—I have been meaning Desrtopa’s use of “TDT reasoning,” which seems to be like TDT + [assumption that everyone else is using TDT].
I shouldn’t say that TDT is irrelevant, but really that it is a needless generalization in this context. I meant that Desrtopa’s invocation of TDT was irrelevant, in that it did nothing to fix the commons problem that we were initially discussing without mention of TDT.
NO! It implies that you go ahead and use TDT reasoning—which tells you to defect in this case! TDT is not about cooperation!
wedrifid, RIGHT. Sorry, got a little sloppy.
