That's not what I was talking about, interpreting "It's possible that X will happen" as "the event X is non-empty" is as wrong as interpreting "I believe X will happen" as "negation of even X is empty". Uncertainty is just lack of certainty, "it's possible" expresses probability lower than that of "it's probable", way below "it's certain".
