    It is not the case that The failure of invariance under arbitrary refinement does not negate invariance under epistemically relevant refinements such as correlated equilibrium supports.

    ?Set your confidence on the premises below to see your aggregate.

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Distinguishing 'epistemically relevant' from 'arbitrary' refinements requires prior theory about what counts as relevant—begging the question.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If invariance fails under some refinements but not others, the concept lacks the objectivity and universality that makes invariance principles valuable.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Correlated equilibrium itself depends on which refinements we allow, making selectivity about refinements question-begging rather than foundational.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Epistemically relevant refinements reflect actual information available to agents, while arbitrary refinements introduce meaningless distinctions.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Correlated equilibrium supports model realistic coordination mechanisms that agents can actually learn and implement through observation.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Invariance principles should apply only to refinements that preserve the decision-theoretic structure agents actually face.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
