Though Tyson doesn’t believe in luck over the truth of probability and chance, he likes to use luck as a measuring stick for how probability has appeared. It is purely probability, purely random chance, how the events came to be, but Tyson finds it easier to quantify how the odds appear as lucky or unlucky rolls.
He doesn’t allow that luck to change the value he assigns to different scenarios, especially when making plans for the web, but Tyson can keep score more efficiently that way. It also makes certain concepts easier for Tyson to express to other people rather than throwing out the mathematical version.
The exception to that rule comes from gamblers, who Tyson would instead default on presenting the information as a clear betting odds rather than automatically presenting concepts of luck as Tyson knows that gamblers have a tendency to be superstitious about luck and he respects superstitions.
