Or, you could just assume that it wouldn't make sense for Adam Zerner to define winning as failing, so he was referring to rationality as the set of skills that LW teaches.
It's not like winning <--> losing is the only relevant taxis.
It's definitely relevant to this reasoning:
"Since (instrumental) rationality is winning, and these people are winning within their own domains, they are being instrumental rationalists within them."
Just assume Adam Zerner wasn't talking about instrumental rationality in this case.
