On: The Low Base Rate Problem (2014)

[xpe]

I tend to notice when people write 'the only choice' or 'the only real choice' when they probably mean something more like (1) an option that, when examined, seems best; or (2) an unexamined (sometimes dogmatic) choice. In some cases, a person may have a third intent: by linguistically limiting a choice set, they can frame or limit a discussion (for good or ill).

I dunno about all that, but in my case what I mean is "the only choice that would satisfy the author's criteria of being statistically sound"
