“The conditional probability P(cults|aliens) isn’t less than P(cults|aliens) ”
Shouldn’t this be ” The conditional probability P(cults|~aliens) isn’t less than P(cults|aliens) ?” It seems trivial that a probability is not less than itself, and the preceding text seems to propose the modified version included in this comment.

I’ve just realized that there’s a footnote addressing this. My apologies.
