(I find new obvious things everywhere after the recent realization that any explicit consideration an agent knows is subject to whole agent's judgment, even "preference" or "logical correctness". This also explains a bit of our talking past each other in the other thread.)

I don't have much idea what you mean here. This seems important enough to write up as more than a parenthetical remark.

I second this request. In particular, please clarify whether "preference" and "logical correctness" are presented here as examples of "explicit considerations". And whether whole agent should be parsed as including all the sub-agents? Or perhaps as extrapolated agent?
