It all depends on what you value. If you personally value knowing what things really are, then adopting instrumentalism or pragmatism will lose you some potential value.
I argue that for this it doesn’t, i.e. my case for how the problem of the criterion gets resolved is that you can’t help but be pragmatic because that’s a description of how epistemology is physically instantiated in our universe. The only thing you might lose value on is if you have some desire to resolve metaphysical questions and you stop short of resolving them then of course you will fail to receive the full value possible because you didn’t get the answer. I argue that getting such answers is impossible, but nonetheless trying to find them may be worthwhile to someone.

Ok,but meta level arguments ar still subject to the problen of the criterion.
