There's nothing erroneous about making the only respectable presumption possible. It doesn't matter how many don't do it or don't even know how to do it, because users are the only ones in a position get it right. Nothing you can do based upon any misguided presumption you can know better stands any better than a random chance of improving for any in that group, while you are 100% certain to make it worse for all those who do. -- "Love your neighbor as yourself."
