This could be useful: Suppose people are gambling on outcomes I do/don't like. Maybe "Chances that we all die in nuclear war". If my superpower prediction is that a nuclear war will happen, I should place a bet to change the outcome from "guaranteed death" to "maybe death".

That might work. My intent was that the natural order prevails either way. You just only know the outcome if you don't intervene.
