A comment on Fuzzy Logic. Parent comment
Assuming that the die is fair, this is not possible in the real world.
Bayesian probability [1] states that this is not possible as expected.
``` P(land1 ^ land6) = P(land1) x P(land6 | land1) = 1/6 x 0 = 0 ```
However, fuzzy logic [1] results in an unintuitive result.
``` T(land1 ^ land6) = min(land1, land6) = min(1/6, 1/6) = 0 ```
