Forgive me, as I am brand new to LW. Where is it defined that an epistemic rationalist can’t seek epistemic rationality as a means of living a good life (or for some other reason) rather than as a terminal goal?
From the wiki:-
Epistemic rationality is that part of rationality which involves achieving accurate beliefs about the world. ….. It can be seen as a form of instrumental rationality in which knowledge and truth are goals in themselves, whereas in other forms of instrumental rationality, knowledge and truth are only potential aids to achieving goals.
