You just present these things as tools, not fundamental ideas, also discussing why they are not fundamental and why figuring out fundamental ideas is important.

Thinking of Bayesianism as fundamental is what made some people (e.g., at least Eliezer and me) think that fundamental ideas exist and are important. (Does that mean we ought to rethink whether fundamental ideas exist and are important?) From Eliezer's My Bayesian Enlightenment:

The first time I heard of "Bayesianism", I marked it off as obvious; I didn't go much further in than Bayes's rule itself. At that time I still thought of probability theory as a tool rather than a law. I didn't think there were mathematical laws of intelligence (my best and worst mistake). Like nearly all AGI wannabes, Eliezer2001 thought in terms of techniques, methods, algorithms, building up a toolbox full of cool things he could do; he searched for tools, not understanding. Bayes's Rule was a really neat tool, applicable in a surprising number of cases.

(Besides, even if your suggestion is feasible, somebody would have to rewrite a great deal of Eliezer's material to not present Bayesianism as fundamental.)
