Haha. I was both agreeing with you and being sarcastic. I agree with your
basic premise (that we don't know everything, and shouldn't assume that we
do) and at the same time feel that it is a ridiculous topic, simply because
practically speaking we cannot possibly take into account various unknown
(currently unknowable?) possibilities when deciding on courses of action -
to do so would halt all activity and very likely drive us into madness, or
at least into deeper and deeper circles of theoretical argument, the only
possible benefit of which being a hightened capacity for run on sentences
like this one.

gotta go,
