But the standard Frequentist stance is that probabilities are not degrees of belief, but solely long term frequencies in random experiments.
Most "frequentists" aren't such sticklers about terminology. Most people who attach probabilities to beliefs in knowledge representations - say, AI systems - are more familiar with frequentist than Bayesian methodology.
Okay, so most people who use statistics don't know what they're talking about. I find that all too plausible.
