We can have different mathematical aesthetics, sure. I got excited about these decision theories in the first place when I saw that Löbian cooperation worked without any black boxes, and that's the standard to which I'm holding my thinking. If you can find a way to automatically generate better causal diagrams for a wide range (even if not a complete one) of games and opponents, then I'll start finding that approach really fascinating too.
