It's a long time since I acquired my degree, so I frequently struggle to parse these fascinating pieces. What I try to do is apply more plausible thought experiments, relating to actual life (eg I'm trying to read this in the context of dipping a toe into dating markets).
Maybe I'm just not clever enough, but I'd be really into it if you applied some of these arguments to more relatable scenarios.
Either way, keep up the good work - it's kindled renewed interest in the field over here 💪
For the second principle, doesn't it make sense to say that although you are indifferent between (H,Y), and (H, Y+1), you aren't indifferent between ((H,Y), (H, Y+1))? Seems like the principle denies this.
The principle seems somewhat arbitrary, too. If there's two coin tosses, what's the reason to exclude the (Heads, Tails) and (Tails, Heads) outcomes?
