Thanks for the kind words. I consider the last long paragraph ("what we therefore see"...) to be a form of conclusion even if not marked so. It used to be longer but then I figured that it was just sermonizing about the well-known issues around FAI and decided to stick only to the original contributions. Again, I fear my long gestation of this particular topic may have warped my judgement. Will try to clearly mark the conclusion and add a little more meat around the connections I see to FAI and rationality.

I really enjoy your contributions to LR and some of your stuff I have read off-site by the way.
