IHe's explaining the process of compartmentalization. I suspect if he had to bet on it for the background of a scientific fact, he would choose option A, but if he were discussing with a Rabi, he would choose to option B... he's reallly just choosing which compartment of belief to draw from.

So there is free money to be had by posing as a rabbi and offering a bet to Robert Aumann?

I suppose his compartments might get a bit confused at that point, but the scientific one would win out :).
