That seems pretty arbitrary. You can make the mugging go away by simply penalizing his promise of n utils with a probability of 1/n (or less); but just making him go away is not a justification for such a procedure - what if you live in a universe where a eccentric god will give you that many utilons if you win his cosmic lottery?
