I’ve found that when discussing rationality people place more focus toward having consistent beliefs than on forming accurate beliefs. This is because people can Dutch Book you when you’re inconsistent but not when you’re consistent and wrong.
But in real life people don’t know what your beliefs are, and so can’t Dutch Book you anyway. I’d rather be accurate and inconsistent than consistent and wrong.
I broadly agree.
