The problem with your “white room” scenario is that one human can’t actually have Large amounts of utility. The value of the 3^^^3th seat cushion is actually, truly zero.
That would be my answer if we were talking about, say, a billion cushions. With 3^^^3, most of them aren’t even in your future light cone, so they might as well not even exist.
… I did mention this, you know. Which is why I proceeded to bring up Fun, which by definition always has a positive utility no matter how much of it you get.

Or at least, the sum over the utilities of creations one to infinity converges.
