Probability fact many struggle to reason with:

If someone says there's a 99.999% chance something will happen, and then it doesn't happen - that person may have been exactly right about the probability.

You can't look at a single poll.

You can't look at a single market.

You can't look at a single event.

Forecasting ability must be measured across a collection of events. See Brier scores.
