The statement of the problem is the guarantee, just like the statement of the problem is the guarantee that there is always 1 car and 2 goats, that you always get to initially choose 1 door, etc.
- jncfhnb 3y agoNope! It states you opened a door and then Monty opened a door. It does not state that Monty would have opened a door if you had picked a different one. If this is not communicated you don’t gain any knowledge from his reveal. The typical proper Monty hall formula states this assumption clearly that he will always open a goat door. The original one does not state this.
- tshaddox 3y agoI don’t disagree that adding “always” to every clause of the problem statement technically makes it less ambiguous.
