It looks like I agree with you but disagree with your original post. What's the problem with saying we believe Bayes' Theorem, and clarifying if asked that we ascribe probability 1 minus epsilon to it?

The rest of your post is of value, but the "You can't believe in Bayes' Theorem" hook goes awry.

Fair enough.
