Ah. I had been wondering what the actionable implications of this model were supposed to be. After all, it does not seem useful for truth-seeking to adopt a strategy of assuming that in every blank spot in your territory, there’s actually an invisible dragon. With this comment, things make more sense to me.
That said, if shouting is fine, then the Dark Forest analogy seems misleading, and another metaphor (like DirectedEvolution’s Faerie Forest) might be more apt.
