Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors. Behind one door is a car, behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say #1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say #3, which has a goat. He says to you, "Do you want to pick door #2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice of doors?
Interesting development - so,
In what way is this OTHER statement of the problem ill-posed,
ambiguous, underspecified, etc.
The contestants optimal strategy (still) seems clear to me.
