...wait, you were just asking for an example of an agent being “incoherent but not dominated” in those two senses of being money-pumped? And this is an exercise meant to hint that such “incoherent” agents are always dominatable?
I continue to not see the problem, because the obvious examples don’t work. If I have (1apple,$0) as incomparable to (1banana,$0) that doesn’t mean I turn down the trade of −1apple,+1banana,+$10000 (which I assume is what you’re hinting at re. foregoing free money).
If one then says “ah but if I offer $9999 and you turn that down, then we have identified your secret equivalent utili-” no, this is just a bid/ask spread, and I’m pretty sure plenty of ink has been spilled justifying EUM agents using uncertainty to price inaction like this.
What’s an example of a non-EUM agent turning down free money which doesn’t just reduce to comparing against an EUM with reckless preferences/a low price of uncertainty?
