In simple terms, this bound tells us that the probability that aliens exist lies somewhere in [0,1].

By definition all probabilities lie in this range. It doesn't change the fact that within this range of R (Real Numbers) the number of logarithms are uncountable.

In simple terms... for every real number >1 (let's call that number x) the number 1/x also exists. Mind blowing huh!

.. Also I was primarily talking about the TTAPS equation which seemed to be the main focus of the parent's threads.
