• Does Anderson (1990) himself define rational analysis as optimal adaptation to the environment, and is it his or a later reading that equates it with Marr's computational level?

• Anderson traces rational analysis's lineage to Brunswik and Gibson, then Marr and Shepard, before naming it his own

• Chater & Oaksford (1999) list integration with Marr's computational level as an unresolved 'outstanding question' for rational analysis, eight years after Anderson made the equation

• Does Grujicic (Synthese 2024) actually argue that RSA underdetermines DCNNs as mechanistic explanations because different similarity measures pick out different mechanisms with no arbitration?

• Grujicic's DCNN critique is framed on Craver & Kaplan's model-to-mechanism-mapping (3M) requirement and the how-actually/how-possibly distinction, not on Marr's levels — the word 'Marr' never appears in the paper

• Resource-rational analysis (Lieder & Griffiths 2020) self-describes as a direct extension of Anderson's rational analysis, pushing it toward Marr's algorithmic level

• Is resource-rational analysis (Lieder & Griffiths) the tightest convergence point of Werbos's approximate dynamic programming and Anderson's rational analysis?

• Werbos's optimal-control ADP and Oaksford–Chater's rational analysis make the same 'optimization as a theory of mind' bet from two independent disciplines

• Rational analysis (Anderson 1990) explains cognition as the optimal solution to the computational problems the environment poses — Marr's computational level turned into a research program

• Representational similarity underdetermines shared mechanism — matching a target's output does not fix its underlying mechanism

• Two vault notes commit the same illegitimate cross-level inference in opposite directions across Marr's stack — a validated substrate launders an unvalidated reading (substrate-laundering)

• The Werbos–Oaksford/Chater bridge is real but relocated — optimization-as-theory-of-mind, and the objective function fixes the verdict
