The set of "problems for us after we get FAI" is the null set.

Kind of, almost. It could be that we (implicitly) choose to have problems for ourselves.

In case it's not clear. This means the FAI causing problems for us on our behalf, not literally making a choice we are aware of.

(Or 'choosing not to intervene to solve all problems'. The difference matters to some, even if it is somewhat arbitrary.)
