Not a philosophy
Not wrong, but incomplete.
Bayes is a philosophical principle: “Correlation ain’t causation, but that’s the way to bet.”
"...unless you know something else that bears upon it; then include that, too."
;-)
This is a non sequitur in the contexts of calculating probability and of Bayes. Neither make causal claims.
Bayes does not. Bayesians do. Boy, howdy, do they ever.
And correlations these days in science is not the way to bet. Bet on correlation, not causation.
Ungenerous comment.
It addresses the purpose for the original post.
Ok yes that’s fair. Sorry.
All good.
"mathematical urges". Such as the desire to multiply?
C'mon William, Bayes was all about betting.
LaTex?! My man!!
