OK. So the argument is this one:
But, on your use of "disposition", two-boxers reject 1. They do not believe that you should have a FAWS-disposition to one-box, since having a FAWS-disposition to one-box just means "actually taking one box, where this is not a result of randomness". Two-boxers think you should non-randomly choose to take two boxes.
ETA: Some two-boxers may hesitate to agree that you "ought to have a disposition to one-box", even in the philosopher's sense of "disposition". This is because they might want "ought" to only apply to actions; such people would, at most, agree that you ought to make yourself a one-boxer.
From the original post:
Richard is probably using disposition in a different sense (possibly the model someone has of someones disposition in my sense) but I believe Eliezer's usage was closer to mine, and either way disposition in my sense is what she would need to actually get the million dollars.
