I dunno, I perceive a lot of criticism of CEV here-- if I recall correctly there have been multiple top-level posts expressing skepticism of it. And doesn't Robin Hanson (among others) disagree with the hard takeoff scenario?

That's true. (Although notice that not one of those posts has ever gotten the green button.)

CEV does not fit well into my second paragraph, since it is not a prerequisite for anything else, and therefore not a point of dependency in an analysis.
