The passage around this formula
It helps to state the structural point precisely rather than just by example. Let p be an agent’s probability of completing a task successfully, so 1-p is its failure probability, and let severity be a random quantity C 0 describing how bad a given failure turns out to be, conditional on failure occurring. The probability that a given run produces a failure whose severity clears some consequential threshold — a deleted database rather than a clumsy sentence — is

An inequality compares values without claiming they are equal. It describes a range, threshold, or bound that a quantity may satisfy.
