My point is that the fact that the probabilistic inference is valid does not imply that you should e.g. use examples that assume the user is that way, which was the reason you were making that point to begin with. I can safely assume that an unknown user is male. Doesn't mean I should use male-experience specific examples for elucidation.
See here (minus the part about the robe). My response was about whether a certain presumption was biased, not whether it was an optimal social norm.
