That's where I disagree. Your expected value on buying A is (probability A is implemented) * (true(A) - market_value(A), and similarly for B, because your receive zero return if the thing you bet on is not implemented. Thus, even if A is badly mispriced, you may not want to buy it if it has very low probability of being implemented.
