Because you'd have a data structure of world-states and their probabilities, which would look very much like a bunch of statements of the form "This world-state has this probability".
It doesn't need to be written in a human-like way to have meaning, and if it has a meaning then my argument applies.
So "should" = the table of expected utilities that goes along with the table of probabilities.
Then I am basically in agreement with you.
