I now think you're right that logical uncertainty doesn't violate any of Jaynes's desiderata. Which means I should probably try to follow them more closely, if they don't create problems like I thought they would.

An Aspiring Rationalist's Ramble has a post asserting the same thing, that nothing in the desiderata implies logical omniscience.
