My statement is one of statistically-informed confidence. A physicist's proof, not a mathematician's. As I said, proving it is where the challenge lies.

I believe proof-by-induction is still a mathematically valid proof. Just one to be suspicious of/can be overridden by more rigid proofs.

Induction is a mathematical tool. Overwhelming statistics is the physicist's.
