What would be good enough in your view?
A more disciplined route or method, such as invoking the phrase "to best of our knowledge" which underlines familiarity, awareness, and/or understanding that's gained through experience and/or study.

While you can still be wrong, its far more reliable than simple intuition, and prevents you from making invalid casual connections and erroneous assumptions about reality.
