Statement
A Bayesian logical inductor can be read as a heuristic estimator whose arguments are of the form that the logical inductor thinks a sentence true, and broken down into finer arguments.

projects/deference/faf-cleanroom-2026-10-02/sources/references/bli/logseq-journals/bli-journal-2025-04-22-arc-visit.md: "In some sense, BLI gives us a heuristic estimator where the "arguments" are just "LI thinks this". Perhaps there is some way we can start with a BLI and break down the arguments a lot to get something resembling heuristic arguments?"
Notes
No work behind it; it links the BLI line to the heuristic-estimators area.
