Be careful, it’s very common for people to gerrymander such probability estimates by unjustifiably assuming complete independence or complete dependence of certain terms. (This is true even if the “probability estimate” is only implicit in the qualitative structure of the argument.) If people think that’s what you’re doing then they’re likely to disregard your conclusions even if the conclusions could have been supported by a weaker argument.
