I tried to prove it, and I am getting an expected benifet of 1⁄4, and I am worried that I am making a mistake related to reording the terms of a non absolutely converging series.
If you are right, you could do better with f(x) = 2/x, and the values for x < 2 don’t matter.

Sorry, I mistyped the comment, fixed it immediately but I guess you saw the old version. It’s 1⁄4 of course.
I’m not sure what remains of Eliezer’s original point now...
Ah, that old confounder in the rhythm of disagreement: a smart person who appears to disagree with you might not have said what they meant to say. ;)
