Mouse over probability distributions Likelihood qualifiers (likely, unlikely) are a common source of miscommunication. Lots of content on the forum feels pretty nuanced to me and subtle differences in priors can often be cruxes e.g. most important century.
A step in the right direction could be being able to add prob. distributions as tooltips (maybe using an elicit like interface or maybe just ‘freehand’) to illustrate these qualifiers better. The user can highlight a word in their draft and press a button, this will being up the prob. distribution entering interface. When published the words appear in a different colour and mousing over them shows you the probability distribution (think creating and mousing over hyperlinks but for prob distributions).
