It doesn't have to be simple. It just has to be more plausible than the alternative. So, which of the following is more likely? a) Jeanne lived for 122 years.

It doesn't have to be simple. It just has to be more plausible than the alternative. So, which of the following is more likely?
a) Jeanne lived for 122 years.
b) Jeanne died and Yvonne's friends and neighbors allowed her to take her mother's identity.
I'm going with b).
