a hypothesis which has a very low prior probability
Its probability is different in estimates of the people who disagree, and its best alternative will find the status of having “low probability” in estimate of different people. Just “low probability” doesn’t make the situation asymmetric.
if you want to support the low probability hypothesis, then you spend the resources.
You should spend the resources when there is high value of information, otherwise do something else. Improving someone else’s beliefs may have high value for them.
