  1. Yep. It's a whole genre, these silly faux-dilemmas. They try to pass-off a multi-step process as a one-and-done. In the case of SB and similar DT puzzles, it's, as you say, more than one prediction, serially. In this guy's argument, he even replaces the fair coin with an extremely unfair coin, if you will, and STILL courts the controversy. Infantilizing, if you ask me.

  22. This guy's got a strong Linus Pauling vibe to him. Which is to say, the vibe of a sincerely self-deluded crank. Except this guy is no Linus Pauling.
