I'm reminded of a joke about how Haskell empowers you to apply the infinite power of abstract mathematics using the intuitive simplicity of abstract mathematics.
I think the resistance you're encountering stems from the fact that you're appealing to formality rather than intuition.

- jsprogrammer 11y agoCounting positive observations vs. total observations is a formality rather than intuition? The formality is the axioms of probability. The intuition is that you make a theory and measure how many predictions it gets right.
