I saw this troublesome sign at Morro Bay, CA. At least troublesome for Manifold! The topic of this is the role of legalism in market judgment criteria. This is not too serious and I recommend 10m only in each category. Or submit your own ones too! Going for claims which would be hard to hold and judge against a maximum evil djinn/genie+misaligned lawyer AI.

Initial deadline end of year but may extend if we're having fun.

Please submit yours although I will brutally censor and edit them. Please do not edit in any significant way at all, being hyper cautious, once submitted and doubly so once anyone has bet on them. If they're bad or mean or whatever wrong and not good for kids who may dream to be lawyers one day, clean them up or don't submit.

If you don't know, submitting answers is good and can earn you mana.

Clarifications will come here.

  • When I offhandedly mention boat owner, for example "as a guest of a boat owner" you can assume that the sign agrees with the background statement about boat owner

Will the market here be able to price how I would judge them? I also claim to be "reasonable, logical, fair," in other contexts!

I've decided my answer in each category and will resolve later, trying to strictly give YES or NO but may NA if there was legitimate difference in interpretation between bettors.

Remember: it says it right there, Boat Owners Only. Just read the words.
