This is an appealing story, but I haven’t really observed anyone get noticeably better at epistemology as a result of their practice. I remain confused about this for similar reasons to this story.
I think part of the issue is that epistemology is largely a question of mindware, and practice does not fix missing or bad mindware any more than it can teach a person calculus if they’ve never studied it.
