What if there was a very simple "solution" that did not eliminate the
possibility, but instead just reduced it to, say, one chance in one
trecentillion (10 to the 903 power-- see
http://www.uni-bonn.de/~manfear/numbers_names.php). Would that work?
If that was not good enough (one chance in 10^903), then why not?
And if it *was* good enough, what does that say about your statement above?
