Why don’t we start treating the sum of log_2 of the probability — conditional on every available piece of information — you assign to every true sentence, as the best measure of your epistemic success?
Wait. Perhaps I’m misunderstanding something here, but how are we going to decide what a true sentence is independently of all of our available information?

We won’t be able to decide. But reality will.
