selylindi comments on A fungibility theorem

But you are a human and you don’t obey the axioms … Suppose further that you can quantify each item on that list

Thanks for the interesting read. FWIW, this human isn’t convinced that becoming a human approximation to an optimizer is worthwhile. What happens if, as is more realistic, I can’t quantify any item on my list? (Or perhaps I can, but with three large error terms for environmental noise in the signal, temporal drift of the signal, and systemic errors in converting different classes of value to a common unit.)
