Isn't Chapman's approach and your approach completely identical?
As per OP's graphs, each point on the X axis represents a model and the height of the blue line as the probability assigned to that model.
Or did you just mean that your way is a better way to phrase it for not confusing everyone?
Right. It's good for not confusing new people, and sometimes also good for not confusing yourself.
Oh ok.
I misinterpreted because you said "better" (implying a difference), and "abstraction" is not necessarily the same as "identical".
