I'd say the title is correct almost surely.

  Reminds me of something my complex analysis prof said with respect to some constant that it was unknown whether it was rational or irrational: “There’s no reason to think it’s rational, and statistically, the probability of any real number being rational is 0.”

    He could have even said that that constant was almost certainly transcendental. It always surprises me that almost all real are transcendental, but that there are only 2 transcendental real numbers I am familiar with: pi and e.

      I forget the constant, but as I recall, that was likely true as well.

      That's because almost all transcendentals are not computable or nameable, whereas all algebraics are. So when you limit to the space of nameable computable numbers you get a different statistical intuition.
