I didn't understand this either. What would it mean for a human measurement to be transitive or monotonic? Maybe there is a good definition for these but it's not obvious to me.
- pizza 8y agoI think he's using a measure-theoretic meaning of a measure. Suppose I asked you what the difference in intelligence is between person A and person B. The problems with that would start pretty rapidly.
- mike00632 8y agoSo by "transitive" he means "countably additive"? Monotonic and transitive aren't in the definition of measure and it's still not obvious what those definitions mean in terms of measuring people.
