I’ll be sure to remember that line, for when the people promoting other models of rationality start citing textbooks too. Well, no, I probably won’t, since I doubt I will live long enough to see that. ;)
I see that you are trying to be snide, but it took a while to figure out why you would believe this to be incisive. I had to reconstruct a model of what you think other people here believe from your previous rants.
But, if I recall correctly, I have mostly cited the standard textbook thought-experiments when responding to claims that utility maximization is conceptually incoherent—so absurd that no one in their right mind would propose it.
Yes. That would be a crazy thing to believe. (Mind you, I don’t think pjeby believes crazy things—he just isn’t listening closely enough to what you are saying to notice anything other than a nail upon which to use one of his favourite hammers.)
