Hello ! These ideas seem interesting, but there’s something that disturbs me: in the coin flip example, how is 3 fundamentally different from 1000 ? The way I see it, the only mathematical difference is that your “bounds” (whatever that means) are simply much worse in the case with 3 coins. Of course, I think I understand why humans/agents would want to say “the case with 3 flips is different from that with 1000″, but the mathematics seem similar to me. Am I missing something ?

That’s correct, the difference is just much worse bounds, so for 3 there only exists a natural latent to within a much worse approximation.
