This is making the assumption that the pots do not have access to the same coins, right? Why would there be an investment opportunity available to one pot that isn't available to the others? That's an extra assumption (and a fairly arbitrary one).

I think it's a natural assumption!
you have impact on coins. You can't go arbitrarily big.
At some point you have to split off some of your capital.

Having impact on coins has nothing to do with the pots having heterogenous investment opportunities, right?
You could still have each subpot just make the exact same bets the macro portfolio would make, but scaled down.

If bets have an effect on the market, then sure, the subportfolio manager would find it useful to know how large the total portfolio is (to know how much capital is following the same strategy).
But it will still be maximizing its own log wealth IN THAT CONTEXT.

ok fine how about your future earning potential?
that's not something you can turn into ETH easily but it is something which should be inside the log

or locked coins you have, or your house, or any number of other things that aren't ETH

Uh sure but have we resolved the math thing? Was I right about the math?

uh you were right that it depends on the assumptions you make, sorry about that!
in order for your actualy claim to be right you need to make batshit crazy assumptions
