 Higher likelihood of h1 than h2 on specific evidence does not automatically imply that h1 should be accepted, is likely to be true, or is better in some overall sense than is h2. h1 might, in fact, be a completely lunatic theory which nonetheless entails e, giving h1 as high a likelihood as possible. Such maximal likelihood relative to e would not necessarily alter h1’s lunacy. Likelihood thus does not automatically translate into a measure of how strongly some specific evidence e supports the hypothesis h1 in question (Jantzen 2014a, Chap. 11).
