It's my professional opinion, based on extensive experience and a developed psychological model of human rationality, that such a paper wouldn't be useful. That said, I'd be happy to have you attempt it. I think that your attempt to do so would work perfectly well for your and our purposes, at least if you are able to do the analysis honestly and update based on criticism that you could get in the comments of a LW blog post.

Thanks, but my current level of education is completely insufficient to accomplish such a feat to an extent that would be adequate. Maybe in a few years, but right now that is unrealistic.
