Suppose we have two possible actions X,Y and A prefers <X,Y> to <Y,X> to <X,X> to <Y,Y> and B prefers <Y,X> to <X,Y> to <X,X> to <Y,Y>. What will be the outcome if both of them use main4() with their respective orderings and the same proves() function?

Probably <X,X>, which is not quite optimal. This doesn't solve the bargaining problem, which is exactly what your example is.
