Okay, I rewrote the ending, and added a footnote about "valuing uncertainty". Thanks for all the input!

It isn't often that I see conversations that go "No -> huh? Actually. -> wtf? No really" resolve themselves to agreement.

Maybe it helps that we're both more concerned with figuring stuff out than "winning an argument" :)
