One tweak I might make to this is to assign probabilities to the circles instead of binary yes/no decisions. This will give a more principled way to reason with multiple conflicting pieces of evidence.
Thanks! Yes, it definitely resembles the structure of an argument map.
Percent probabilities would be more Bayesian and fit certain questions better, but I wanted to show what’s possible without any scary math at all. Also, for a lot of questions, any percent probabilities people put down would be made up anyway.
This is a nice approach! Sounds a lot like an argument map: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_map.
