In most of these cases we can distinguish further: what is rational is to act in a certain way and to have a certain reputation. This has the benefit of being more airtight - one can argue for a logical relationship between disposition and action. (In Newcomb, the existence of an omniscient agent makes them all equivalent, but weird assumptions lead to weird conclusions.)
