You are already aware of this but, for the benefits of other readers all mention it anyway.
In this post I demonstrate that the narrative of betting arguments validating thirdism is generally wrong and is just a result of the fact that the first and therefore most popular ha;fer model is wrong.
Both thirders and halfers, following the correct model, make the same bets in Sleeping Beauty, though for different reasons. The disagreement is about how to factorize the product of probability of event and utility of event.
And if we investigate a bit deeper, halfer way to do it makes more sense, because its utilities do not shift back and forth during the same iteration of the experiment.
Yes, I basically agree: My above comment is only an argument against the most popular halfer model.
However, in the interest of sparing reader’s time I have to mention that your model doesn’t have a probability for ‘today is Monday’ nor for ‘today is Tuesday’. If they want to see your reasoning for this choice, they should start with the post you linked second instead of the post you linked first.
