I don’t believe we are talking about the same thing. I wasn’t talking about utility, I was talking about testability. My operational definition of truth is the accuracy of predictions. Except for the “mathematical truths”, which are well formed finite strings of symbols.
I’m interested in when you think the utility of beliefs diverges from their truth.
