You can face both situation A, and complement A, against agents weaker and more powerful than yourself (not strictly true, but true if you don't look at options worse than the default point, which you don't care about anyway).
Hmm, okay. I guess what I really want to know is whether your relative level of power compared to other agents you expect to meet affects whether you'd want to employ the MWBS vs something else.
Based on my naive understanding, it sounds to me like an agent who believes themselves to have low expected relative power might prefer the h utility of KSBS versus the ~min(x,y) utility of MWBS. I'm not sure whether the details actually work out that way though.
I believe that is incorrect (low relative power is a high risk-high reward situation). But we'd have to analyse it properly, with prior probs, etc... Which I have no time for now! :-(
Ah, yeah, I was thinking the high risk, high reward thing might be the answer, based on other statements in your post. Fair enough. Thanks for taking the time to respond!
