Abstract
Dutch Book Arguments (DBAs) have been invoked to support various alleged requirements of rationality. Some alleged requirements, such as probabilistic coherence and conditionalization, are plausible. Others, such as credal transparency and reflection, may be less so. Anna Mahtani has argued for a new understanding of DBAs that, she claims, allows us to keep the DBAs for the plausible requirements while rejecting those for the implausible ones. I argue that Mahtani’s new account fails, as (a) it does not support highly plausible requirements of rational coherence and (b) it does not succeed in undermining the DBAs for credal transparency or reflection.
