though I did think that you didn’t feel that multiplying a very small success probability with a very large payoff was a good reason to donate to MIRI
Because on a planet like this one, there ought to be some medium-probable way for you and a cohort of like-minded people to do something about x-risk, and if a particular path seems low probability, you should look for one that’s at least medium-probability instead.

Ok, fair enough. (I had misunderstood you on that particular point, sorry.)
