You're right but you've torpedoed your own argument by:-

Don't ever get a job where you're required to argue

I haven't torpedoed my own argument.
Mark said they would "probably" be there not guessing. My point was that such an assertion is ridiculous since probably means: in all likelihood, extremely likely etc. The semantics between that and what i said are extremely different. I was merely expressing my opinion.
For example:
Blackpool FC will probably win the Champions League in two years is different from I think Blackpool will win the Champions League in two years.
