I think the thing I would like most is a post that’s “explain why infrabayes matters like I’m 5, basically without math.” (Admittedly I’m not the main target audience, but, I think this is a valuable thing to exist that will help figure out the pedagogical architecture of an eventual textbook)
I’m somewhat worried, from some past experience hearing people try to learn about infrabayes, that you and Alex keep overshooting in complexity. Curious if for the textbook Alex is talking to people with various degrees of background knowledge and seeing how different explanations land?
Well, Alex is on a working on an infra-Bayesianism textbook, maybe that will help.

Personally I feel like I get why it matters from the other posts, and would just like a gentle introduction to the math.
Cool! I too was intimidated by all the math, but I want to understand it at some point!
