  • If Omega thinks you were born loving Beige, he puts $1,000 in box Beige and nothing in box Aquamarine. Otherwise, he puts $1,000 in box Beige and nothing in box Aquamarine.

Did you intend for Omega to act differently in these two situations?

Since EDT reflects on his own decision, it can only be the only fixed point which is to one box.

I agree that EDT should one box, but the your previous two lines suggest the fixed point is at two-boxing.
