In an n-dimensional problem space, the probability of the truth lying anywhere on a line between point A and point B is infinitessimally small.
This is also true. I like to evaluate solutions outside the presented dichotomy in general, and that often means outside the line between them, but I didn't want to complicate my initial explanation that much.
It's just the same point xkcd made.
