I don’t think I can honestly accept mere explicit endorsements of a high-level opinion here, because as far as I can tell, such endorsements are often accompanied by behavior, or other endorsements, that seem (to me) to contradict them. I guess that’s why the examples have attracted so much attention—I have more of an expectation that they correspond to the intuitions people will make decisions with, and those are what I want to be arguing with.
Having written that, it occurs to me that I too could do a better job giving examples that illustrate the core considerations I’m trying to draw attention to, so I’ll make an effort to do that in the future.
