>Unless I misunderstood, You cited _one_ hive in _one_apiary as
apparent confirmation of your beliefs.

I hold no beliefs--my opinions are subject to change as evidence comes in.

 Confirmation of belief implies inductive reasoning, which I intentionally
attempt to avoid.  I seek to always use deductive reasoning instead
