Eliezer's argument, if I understand it, is that any decision-making algorithm that results in two-boxing is by definition irrational due to giving a predictably bad outcome.

So he's assuming the conclusion that you get a bad outcome? Golly.

True, we don't know the outcome. But we should still predict that it will be bad, due to Omega's 99% accuracy rate.

Don't mess with Omega.
