In a less convenient universe, Omega tells you that it has discovered that someone’s zodiac sign predicts their response to Newcomb’s problem with 90% accuracy. What do you do?
You don’t need any of that magic for imperfect predictors, people are pretty predictable as it is, just not perfectly so. And the effort required to improve the prediction accuracy diverges as the accuracy goes to certainty.

To clarify, I don’t see why SCDT would one-box in the zodiac setting.
Why do you stipulate 90% accuracy, not 100%?
Because 100% accuracy would just be weird.
