How is this elaborate proposal superior to bog-standard AI boxing?

For the moment, there is little difference between a really well boxed AI and a reduced impact one (though consider the "a few extra paperclips" AI). But this is an epistemic boxing, not a physical one, which is interesting/useful, and the idea may develop into something more.
