My point (or the second part of it) is that simply by asking "what should you do to achieve an optimal result", the question assumes that your reasoning capacity is good enough to compute the optimal result. If computing the optimal result requires being able to simulate Omega, then the original question implicitly assumes that you are able to simulate Omega.
Right, I just don't agree that the question assumes that.
