The “different masters” thing is a special case of the problem of accepting feedback (i.e. learning from approval/disapproval or reward/punishment) from approval functions in conflict with each other or your goals. Multiple humans trying to do the same or compatible things with you aren’t “different masters” in this sense, since the same logical-decision-theoretic perspective (with some noise) is instantiated on both.
But also, there’s all sorts of gathering data from others’ judgment that doesn’t fit the accountability/commitment paradigm.
