Note that the post mentioned that the OC's offer was for the algorithmically proven most enjoyable life the recipient can live.

(And local tradition stipulates that entities called Omega are right when they prove something.)

Edit: Which indicates that if your scenario might happen, if the best life you can live includes recursive algorithmic betterment of said life.
