uea-self-knowledge-vs-self-modification
leaf/route · drafted
Statement
Theorem 1's self-knowledge premise is restated so that it distinguishes self-knowledge from environmental concerns, or self-modification from environment-forced modification, and the theorem holds in environments where self-modification is rational.

It would be good to address this somehow, EG by distinguishing between self-knowledge and environmental concerns, or by distinguishing self-modification from environment-forced modification. I'm not sure what fix would be best."
