I find the framing of “experience slices” definitely pushes my intuitions in the same direction.
One question I like to think about is whether I’d choose to gain either (a) a neutral experience or (b) flipping a coin and reliving all the positive experience slices of my life if heads, and reliving all the negative ones if tails
My life feels highly net positive but I’d almost certainly not take option (b). I’d guess there’s likely risk aversion intuition also being snuck here too though.
