Say, I have no car and need to borrrow one for a week from my mate.
I have no other option - must borrow one from him and not from anybody else.
He offers me one of two $hitty old cars available.
The 'A' model has steering problems - every now and then the car can veer off by 1 meter either left or right while driving.
The 'B' model has a solid steering but its brakes are dodgy - breaking distance is much longer.

Now, which one do I pick?
I don't like any of them but have to pick one.
Which one is more likely to get me into trouble?
Over which one can I have more control?

Clearly 'A' is far too risky - what if it veers off 1 meter to my right while passing oncoming traffic ?
That would be pretty much be the end for me.

The one with the faulty breaks can get me in trouble too, but if I keep more distance between other vehicles, I'd have more chances (=less liablity) of getting myself into trouble. Still there is a chance but better this than loose steering.

So, for me the 'A' car represents Biden, 'B' is Trump.

MisterKobayashi,

I'm not sure your analogy reinforces your point.

So to be clear,

Car A has a steering probably which can cause it to veer...

Car B has solid steering but it's brakes are dodgy..

In any real world a can beats an are.

A possible is better than a certain.

Happy to help.
