My point about assuming the entire world were less wrong users is that there are teams, made up of people who are not less wrong users, who will develop UFAI if we wait long enough. So a quick and slightly dirty plan (like making this sort of potentially dangerous Oracle AI) may beat a slow and perfect one.

Oh! I see. That makes sense.
