The passage around this formula
…under domain policies, proposed the complementary statistic: the probability that every one of k independent trials on the same task succeeds, rather than at least one of them [ 3 ] . The two formulas share the same n , c , and k and the same combinatorial machinery, and that similarity is precisely the point: they are estimating two different probabilities from the same data, one about the best of k attempts and one about the consistency of all k of them. A system can score well on the first and badly on the…
