I don’t agree the definition is terrible. I agree it’s incomplete. My point boils down to: we should include “caring about” in our intuitive definition of future selves, rather than using other definition and wondering if we can deduce caring from that. Humans do generally care about their future selves, so if we ommit that from the definition, we’re talking about something else.
