What reversal? I still think that it detracts from the overall presentation of “modern rationality” by getting people sidetracked into learning open problems in physics at a pop-sci level. Whatever points EY was trying to make there can surely be made better without it.
I meant where you said “not relevant” and Eliezer responded with “highly relevant”. It sounds to me as though he thinks it’s fundamental to rationality or something. Very confusing.
