FWIW, I think the dutch book argument is overrated because it assumes
ceteris paribus :-) That once you've gonne enough trips around the
cycle, someone won't wisen up and say "no".
It's true, though, that things would be much easier if we had an
unforgeable signal of people's utility. Or just interpersonal utility
comparison at every scale, even if people could lie.
