The idea
With probability, a rule can say "usually": all-or-nothing rules become statements of how strongly a symptom shifts belief.
In practice
Yellowing occurs in 8 of 10 overwatered plants, 2 of 10 healthy — numbers a botanist can stand behind; Bayes' rule does the shifting.
Where people slip
The succulent stops being a scandal: its autumn yellowing is priced into the likelihoods instead of breaking the system.
