None of the probability axioms involve multiplication.

The product rule does, and in any case I mean to include all the rules of arithmetic that we use to apply Bayes.

  It’s not an axiom. I think it might be the definition of “given”.

  Then you’re talking about math, not probability. The fact that you can’t prove or disprove Goedel’s sentence doesn’t change the probability of a hypothesis.
