"Almost No Chance" Not "Remote"
URL: Not captured — experimental run
Extract¶
The ICD 203 seven-point probability scale uses "Almost no chance" (01-05%) for the lowest band. The claim uses "Remote," which is not the ICD 203 term. The term "Remote" appears in some IC probability scales but is not the standard ICD 203 terminology. The claim may conflate the ICD 203 scale with a DIA-specific or other agency-specific adaptation.
Relevance to Hypotheses¶
| Hypothesis | Relationship | Strength |
|---|---|---|
| H1 | Contradicts | Strong — "Remote" is not the correct term |
| H2 | Supports | Strong — confirms a terminology discrepancy |
| H3 | Neutral | N/A — addresses term precision, not structural accuracy |
Context¶
The percentage range (01-05%) is correct regardless of the term used. The discrepancy is terminological, not structural. However, in a claim about a specific standard's exact terminology, this matters.
Notes¶
Further research could identify the specific source of the "Remote" conflation. Some DIA publications may use "Remote" in place of "Almost no chance."
