Do you doubt the potential of PredictionBook to improve your calibration and diminish akrasia or is rationality really about "affiliating with an ideology or signaling one’s authority" and not about having the map reflect the territory (yes, I realize this is a false dichotomy, but it makes for better rhetoric)?

Sounds tongue in cheek, but hopefully it doesn't actually make for better rhetoric here... right?
