I don’t understand why, just because Eliezer chose to move the game from one of persuasion to one about power and enforcement, you have to keep playing it that way.
If Eliezer is really so irrational that once he has exercised power on some issue, he is no longer open to any rational arguments on that topic, then what are we all doing here? Shouldn’t we be trying to hinder his efforts (to “not take over the world”) instead of (however indirectly) helping him?
