Yeah, you’re right that we assume that you care about what’s going on outside the lightcone! If that’s not the case (or only a little bit the case), that would limit the action-relevance of ECL.
(That said, there might be some weird simulations-shenanigans or cooperating with future earth-AI that would still make you care about ECL to some extent although my best guess is that they shouldn’t move you too much. This is not really my focus though and I haven’t properly thought through ECL for people with indexical values.)
