For, suppose that I gave the second, apparently weaker signal. If you cooperated with me while anticipating that I would defect, then that would mean that you didn't believe me when I said that I would cooperate with you if you cooperated with me, which would mean that you didn't believe my signal.

I guess. Or maybe I'm a masochist ;)

I accept all your suggested improvements.
