I do in fact include the same quote you include in the section titled “Cyc is not a Promising Approach to Machine Intelligence.” That’s part of the reason why that section resolves in favor of Yudkowsky.
I agree that Hanson thinks skills in general will be harder to acquire than Yudkowsky thinks. I think that could easily be another point for Yudkowsky in the “human content vs right architecture.” Like many points there in that section, I don’t think it’s operationalized particularly well, which is why I don’t call it either way.
