I was planning on writing a thing about the problem with what you term literary Bayesianism, coming to the conclusion you express so felicitously as "Handmade bespoke artisanal bias laundering" (I may have to gank that), when I was rudely interrupted by a global health catastrophe. Except instead of going after the Rationalists, I was planning on going after their prophets, Kahneman and Tversky, which seems to be where this idiocy actually comes from.
