Statement

A legitimacy-weighted consequentialist objective is the right frame for corrigibility, as against a system that is consequentialist by default and behaves corrigibly on legitimate modification attempts.

Source

Stated from its content: a design alternative to the legitimacy-weighted objective is a legitimacy-respecting system that is consequentialist by default and corrigible on legitimate modification attempts; the case for the objective is that such a piecemeal system may manipulate the humans while acting as a consequentialist.

Notes

A crux between two designs. The legit-neg clean-room packages attack the consequentialist objectives only; the piecemeal alternative has no finite test, which is the action on the route under the improvement claim. Under the second picture the legit-neg negatives lose standing as attacks on the design and keep it as attacks on one design.
