Great post! I wonder if the ‘weirdness’ be partially due to intuitions about human freedom of choice. For instance, it seems nonsensical to ask whether unicellular organisms could alter their behaviour to modify models predicting said behaviour, and thus ‘control’ their fate. Are humans in the same boat?
