A final quick thing that came to mind: I think that Ord’s concept of existential security could be represented in Tarsney’s models as the value of r asymptotically decreasing towards 0 over time. I’d be interested to hear people’s thoughts on whether that seems accurate and, if so:
how accounting for various likelihoods of existential security could affect Tarsney’s models conclusions
how considering Tarsney’s models could affect Ord’s conclusions
(I haven’t tried to think this through myself yet.)
