It turns out that I missed something here. The architect of the TBM, Philippe Smets, wrote to tell me:
One point about Snow's paper on Dutch Book. The problem had already been described and solved in a paper I published in 1993 : see my web site, look at:Smets Ph.(1993) No Dutch Book can be built against the TBM even though update is not obtained by Bayes rule of conditioning SIS, Workshop on Probabilistic Expert Systems.
