Statement

Value restated in a Jeffrey–Bolker format, with the novice's and expert's decisions as events in the world, keeps a characterization by a trust principle, and in Newcomb-like frames it no longer approves of two-boxing.

Notes

A route of ddb-value-iff-total-trust.improvable. The chassis exists: the decision-problems note's subjective states in Jeffrey–Bolker–Joyce format and the Lean package dp-worlds-jb (every core target proved); the restatement of Value in it is not done. The decision-problems formal core is the updateless-dt branch's.
