projects/deference/note-dump-2026-08-11/notes/li-deference.md L72: "The framework here, like DDB, is decision-theoretically unambitious. It does not take a well-considered stance on CDT vs EDT, it does not seek to model the decision-theoretic consequences of environments containing powerful predictors, and it ignores updatelessness."
