I swipe United, it gets it right the first time.

I swipe Ireland, it gets it right the first time.

I swipe “united ireland” a hundred times, it never work.

It’s not probability.

You swipe “grocery lost”, you get “grocery list”. It is probabilistic.

if you backspace and swipe again, you get "grocery lost". with "left wing propaganda" you can backspace and swipe 100 times, it never appears.

ask yourself, since you insist it's probabilistic: what is statistically more probable, "left wing propaganda" or "left wring propaganda"?
