Occam’s razor, as it is popularly known, states that “the simplest answer is most likely to be correct”1. It has been noted in other discussion threads that the phrase “simplest description” is somewhat misleading, and that it actually means something along the lines of “description that is easiest to express concisely using natural language”.
