having read up on it again I noticed I was a little amis with the values. Still, the total prison time is least for cooperation.
I can only wonder what game theory would have to say about setting the punishments as in the original. Certainly the whole thing is rigged to begin with. Both serve time if none of them admits to the crime? You'd have to be uncooperative with law enforcement out of principle, never mind nature is probably not generally as sinister and draconicly enforcing morally biased laws. The void of deep space rather doesn't care to set traps like that on purpose. But it could randomly. If weights are set arbitrarilly in the thought experiment, what would probabilty theory say then? Nothing, as there are no priors. But what would attacking and extinguishing an unexpecting existence about our own chances to be terminated at once without aprehension?
