Can you recommend an overview of everything wrong with probabilistic epistemology? I haven’t found one. There’s lots of papers that say “this particular objection is fatal, so why don’t you guys stop pretending,” but maybe no compendium of those?

Absolutely. Sophisticated thinkers can conceive of both context-dependent recipes and universal generalizations. They are ready to adapt tools as required, and expect to repair laws without compromising them. But Straw Vulcans exist in real life, and so do naive toolboxers.

Okay… we agree that it is possible to fail to apply rational methods when they would be useful, and some people may make that mistake often.
