Yes. I thought I actually made that explicit. At least, it's not "made of" causal relations any more than it's "made of" probability.
Thanks. I think Eliezer is endorsing the 'causal relations are fundamental' reading, and that this apparently conflicts with the idea that causality is the tool of a limited observer. I think he's likely to see these as reconcilable in some way. That, at any rate, is my prediction.
My prediction is that he never noticed this problem before.
My prediction is that he will not respond to this line of criticism within the next three days.
