One thing I've been considering is that facts are used to support underlying assumptions that would be useful if coaxed out. Facts aren't arguments, they're neutral things that people pick and choose from to shape their worldview.

If I could conclusively establish that, on average, there's a 3% chance that your house is robbed this year, some people will view that as a risk to mitigate and some won't.
