 scientifically speaking & respectfully meant, a scientist using the scientific method would never have a resting assumption that something, especially a presumption like that, could be made 
 the equivalent of a child finding a single egg during a local town's easter egg hunt & declaring all the eggs found when there are other children picking up eggs as we speak & the town would never host an easter egg hunt to hide only a single one in the grass for one child 😭 
 conclusion: very odd hypothetical, not composed by a scientist, or, respectfully meant, a logical person, cos the logic does not follow
