UDT/TDT understanding check: Of the 3 open problems Eliezer lists for TDT, the one UDT solves is counterfactual mugging. Is this correct? (A yes or no is all I'm looking for, but if the answer is no, an explanation of any length would be appreciated)
Yes.
So TDT fails on counterfactual mugging, as far as you understand it to work, and the reasoning I gave here is in error?
