This is good, but I feel like we’d better represent human psychology if we said:
Most people don’t make a distinction between the concepts of “x has probability <0.1%” and “x is impossible”.
I say this because I think there’s an important difference between the times when people have a precise meaning in mind, which they’ve expressed poorly, and the times when people’s actual concepts are vague and fuzzy. (Often, people don’t realise how fuzzy their concepts are).
