You write:

it is dangerous to give an AI false beliefs (they may not be stable, for one)

But the approach described here seems to give 100% identical results (certainly as long as we talk about beliefs uncorrelated with the agent's behavior). So why do you think that one is dangerous and the other is fine?

Can you describe a situation in which the two changes lead to different outcomes?
