Not necessarily weak overall, merely that it devotes relatively few resources to addressing this particular tiny subset of my preference-space. After all, there are many other things I care about more.
But, sure, a sufficiently powerful optimizer will come up with solutions so much better that it will never even occur to me to doubt that all other possibilities would be worse. And given a sufficiently powerful optimizer, I might as well invoke the preview feature if I feel like it, because I’ll find the resulting preview so emotionally compelling that I won’t want to use my veto.
That case obscures rather than illustrates the question I’m asking, so I didn’t highlight it.
