Irrelevant. If the Theory of FAI works, then even if you try to give
it Nazi morality it will find the correct morality (assuming that Nazi
morality is not correct, which is doubtful).

Unless we are very lucky (or unlucky, depending on how you look at it),
we might be able to estimate correct Friendliness content and maybe
help it a little bit (give it some priors it won't have to change).
The FAI will still need to verify everything, so the advantage would be
minimal. The whole point is that the programmers can't make the FAI
into a UFAI.

We'll have a hard time telling. That's why the theory has to work, or
I'm breaking out the fruit preserves.
