increases likelihood and decreases likelihood are disjoint. 
(disjointRelation increasesLikelihood decreasesLikelihood independentProbability)
If probability of formula1 and formula2 is independent and "the probability of formula2" is equal to number1 and probability of formula1 provided that formula2 holds is formula2, then number2 is equal to number1.

If formula1 is an instance of formula and formula2 is an instance of formula, then formula1 increases likelihood of formula2 or formula1 decreases likelihood of formula2 or probability of formula1 and formula2 is independent.
