What actually happens is that the reasons for the summary judgements are examined.
Three for, one against. Is the dissenter the only one who has not understood the paper, or the only one who knows that although the work is good, almost the same paper has just been accepted to another conference? The set of summary judgements is the same but the right final judgement is different. Therefore there is no way to get the latter from the former.
Aumann agreement requires common knowledge of each others' priors. When does this ever obtain? I believe Robin Hanson's argument about pre-priors just stands the turtle on top of another turtle.
People don't coincide in their priors, don't have access to the same evidence and aren't running off the same epistemology, and can't settle epistemologiical debates non-circularly......
Threr's a lot wrong with Aumannn, or at least the way some people use it.
