If the strategy is vibes-invariant, it’s also ignoring useful information.
I am not one to suggest ignoring useful information if you’re able to process it in order to get a better answer. However, I think all the examples above were examples where people do not expect to be acting more effectively after processing the information.
That is, I agree with you for a perfect Bayesian that you shouldn’t ignore anything ever, but I read Said Achmiz as saying “If you get bad vibes from someone, be safer around them through planning”, which is not actually a qualitative difference from what Kaj Sotala suggested.
