That sounds like a justification for view 1. Remember, view 1 doesn't provide a justification for why there will need to be continual tweaks to mechanized reasoners to bring them in line with (more-) human reasoning, so remains agnostic on how exactly one justifies this view.

(Of course, "Moldbug's" view still doesn't seem any more defensible, because it equates a machine virtualizing a human, with a machine virtualizing the critical aspects of reasoning, but whatever.)
