That doesn't really answer the question though.
How can you make a plan (instrumental rationality) without having solid premises? (epistemic rationality)
How can you know what works and what not (epistemic rationality) if you haven't tried something? (instrumental rationality)
There's a difference between the two in theory,because an idealized ageny either has true knowledge as a terminal value or not.
The extent to which a given agent can stick to instrumental rationality depends on its nature., how fuzzy or leaky it is. An instrumental rationalist that habitually gathers knowledge of no obvious use might mutate into what is FAPP an epistemic rationalist.
I cant see why experimentation should be more connected to IR than ER.
