If you piss off the intellectuals of your time they will eventually be refuted, but then those that refuted will be refuted, and those that refuted will be refuted etc. So that pissing off intellectuals entitles you to an expected value for iterations (n%2)+1 of a series of games
Whereas not pissing them off entitles you to an expected value for iterations n%2 of a series of games. Which is higher? Who can say, except that one equation has a +1 in it, which implies in this case that it's further along in time, so of course that one is bigger.
