Agreed. In the abstract, value drift is just a change over time, within an agent or across a line of replicated agents. And from the point of view of any given set of values, any other set of values is “bad”. If the other set were good, the agent would seek to adopt them, right?
So the question really is whether value diversity has meta-value. diversity over time isn’t that much different than diversity across agents.
