A major weakness of the standard Bayesian inference method is that it assumes a problem only has two possible solutions.
This is a weird sentence to me. I learned about Bayesian inference through Jaynes’ book and surely it doesn’t portray that inference as having only two possible solutions. The other book I know about, Sivia’s, doesn’t do this either.

You’re referring to how it is described in statistics textbooks. I’m talking about confirmation theory as a philosophy.
