If you define your utility function over histories, then every behaviour is maximising an expected utility function no?
Even behaviour that is money pumped?
I mean you can’t money pump any preference over histories anyway without time travel.
The Dutchbook arguments apply when your utility function is defined over your current state with respect to some resource?
I feel like once you define utility function over histories, you lose the force of the coherence arguments?
What would it look like to not behave as if maximising an expected utility function for a utility function defined over histories.
