Yup. I get all that. I still want to go for the specs.
Perhaps it has to do with the fact that 3^^^3 is way more people than could possibly exist. Perhaps the specs v. torture hypothetical doesn't actually matter. I don't know. But I'm just not convinced.
Just give up already! Intuition isn't always right!
