“You could have been in a winning or losing branch, but you’ve learned that you’re in a losing branch, and your decision to scrape out a little more utility within that branch takes away more utility from (symmetric) versions of yourself in (potentially) winning branches.”
In the Hitchhiker you’re scraping in the winning branch though.
True, I didn’t mean the isomorphism to include that problem, but rather, just the ones I mentioned plus counterfactual mugging and (if I understand the referent correctly) the transparent box newcomb’s. Sorry if I wasn’t clear.
