I'm not sure your complaint works in this case. You only write a report if you want the exemption. The hypothetical business you're imaging shouldn't be looking for an exemption. T…

I think you misunderstood my previous comment. Game theorists, like any academic, prefer models with the least number of assumptions and (transitive) dependencies. My issue is with…
