A fair coin flipped and, despite we do not know the outcome, we cannot say that it is 50/50 beacuse it is either heads or tails, for sure.
This sounds silly logic. But, how can you say the same about confidence intervals?
Quote: The calculated interval has fixed endpoints, where μ might be in between (or not). Thus this event has probability either 0 or 1. One cannot say: "with probability (1 − α) the parameter μ lies in the confidence interval, therefore."
So, the same is with the coin. It is antiscientific to say that fair coin has outcomes 50/50. Probabilities are either 1 or 0. Speaking in probabilisic terms you demonstrate your illiteracy.
There is a million answers on that subject and they all refuse to address what I complain about here. So, it is just polemic. I am not going to ask one more question to be redirect to one of the available answers that just re-iterate the "truth" about the coin flipping that I complain about here instead of explaining it. So explain just here.
I will then probably add an answer to my question. Yes, I already have a question about it.
@ssdecontrol Why don't you ask the same question to the "falling into confidence interval probability is 1 or 0" in the first place? My logic is copy-pasted from theirs. Why do you ask me when I challenge it? Ok, you perished my defense, I give up. My logic worth nothing. Does it mean that you defended the remark about confidence intervals succesfully? Is it right that it is wrong to say that mean falls into the interval with probability?
no, it means i have no idea what you are talking about, i have no idea what that quote is talking about, and i have no idea where the quote came from so i can't even attempt to figure out what the quote is talking about
@Sycorax I had mixed feelings about that one. One of those funny cases where the answer suggests the question is on-topic more clearly than the question text itself does. Sometimes a good answer renders a question a good fit. Sometimes attempting to do so contorts the question beyond the intended meaning, but I didn't feel that was the case here.
