That would mean that believed he had a father with the same reasons, who believed he had a father with the same reasons, who believed he had a father with the same reasons...
I.e., this would require an infinite line of forefathers. (Or at least of hypothetical, believed-in forefathers.)
If anywhere there’s a break in the chain — that person would not have FDT reasons to reproduce, so neither would their son, etc.
Which makes it disanalogous from any cases we encounter in real life. And makes me more sympathetic to the FDT reasoning, since it’s a stranger case where I have less strong pre-existing intuitions.
