learning-versus-freezing

and · drafted

Statement

In the finite shadow of a BLI prior, an agent that learns its policy over time and one that freezes it at the prior separate as Theorem A and Theorem B's learning half state, and two conjectures of Soto's 2023 notes are refuted.

Notes

The nearest formal object to the idea that the reality of other branches decays, and evidence for the partial-updatelessness picture of the tractability crux. Flagged on one fidelity label (ExactAsymptoticClause), which the label-repair task given to the bridge removes.

Bridge card

Connected to no informal claim yet: held by no frame.

Declaration theoremA (record learning-versus-freezing.record)

Bridge (reconstructed; learning-versus-freezing.bridge, drafted):

The declaration's learning and freezing agents are the two policies Soto's PDF 14 contrasts, and its separation is the learning-versus-freezing claim as that source states it, with the asymptotic clause read as the package's label says once repaired.

Hypotheses, read:

Completeness (learning-versus-freezing.complete): No hypothesis beyond the finite shadow is needed for the separation.
