If the answer is 'no' then are you an idiot if you argue that it does mean A is false?
Imagine there is a lake called "Lake Trump Campaign"
All of the water in that lake represents stuff the campaign did
If any of the water is frozen, it means someone did something bad.
We want to find out if any of the water in Lake Trump Campaign is frozen. So we dispatch the SS Mueller to investigate. But Mueller can't say something is "frozen". He can only say if it's "not frozen".
So he sails around, checks out all the water and says it's "not frozen".
Then off in the distance he sees a mist. It looks like fog. It looks like water that is "not frozen". But he can't be sure that it isn't drifting snow. It technically could be drifting snow, there is just no way to tell for sure. But it's probably, in fact overwhelmingly likely, that it's just fog.
So Mueller makes no conclusion on the mist.
Is that the same as finding ice?
