I think it's right to say that these aren't really "fair" problems, but they are unfair in a very interesting new way that Eliezer's definition of fairness doesn't cover, and it's not at all clear that it's possible to come up with a nice new definition that avoids this class of problem. They remind me of "Lucas cannot consistently assert this sentence".
