Wow. The silence was deafening after my last attempt . . . .
How about if I rephrase slightly dufferently as:
Intelligence is
the size of the space containing all world-states that the entity can
successfully reach
minus
the size of the space containing all world-states that the entity
cannot
successfully avoid.
I don't like this so much, because two sets of world-states with equal
measure (size) may have very different complexity...
