[2/2]
Another popular meme about acausal coordination is that it’s just a few agents that coordinate, and they might even be from the same world. But since coordination only requires common knowledge, it’s natural for an agent to coordinate with all its variants in other possible worlds and counterfactuals. The adjudicators are the common knowledge, things that don’t vary, the updateless core of the collective. I think this changes the framing of game theory a lot, by having games play out in all adjacent counterfactuals instead of in one reality. (Plus different players can also share smaller adjudicators with each other to negotiate a fair bargain.)

Thanks for your comment Vladimir! This shortform got posted accidentally before it was done but this seems highly relevant. I will take a look!
