This is actually about right!

You are "Inclusio unius est exclusio

alterius"! You presume that the

legislature chooses words very carefully when

it drafts statutes. Because they could have

used a different word, but didn't, the word

not chosen was deliberately excluded. You

assume a lot based, not just on what's in

front of you, but on what isn't. You have

great faith in others' ability to know

exactly what they want. Probably too much.
