Could you accept that these assumption are frequently made incorrectly?
Let us say I went shopping, and I know that I purchased eight jars of sandwich spread. I know that six of the jars had a mixed peanut butter/jelly stuff that you can squeeze out, and I remember the other two had peanut butter in a glass jar, but I can't remember if they were mixed or not, and I say, of those eight jars, "Six of the jars had jelly, the rest had peanut butter" - because that's all I was certain of - that somebody then inferring that the six jars did NOT have peanut butter, and that the other two jars did NOT have jelly -would be wrong in doing so?
It's entirely possible that the question was poorly put together, and the answers provided were not sufficient to correctly answer the question.
