When should one consider applying Possible Certainty?

"A course of action should definitely be undertaken."
"A course of action should perhaps be undertaken."
"Something is likely or maybe the case."
"Something definitely is or is not the case."

The correct answer is: "Something is likely or maybe the case."

Possible Certainty is a concept used in formal logic to denote situations where something is likely or maybe the case, but not certain. It falls between certainty and possibility. In the context of the question, one should consider applying Possible Certainty when there is an indication that something is likely or maybe the case, but not definite. Option A is too strong as it refers to definite action, which would not fall under Possible Certainty. Option B indicates uncertainty, which is not the same as Possible Certainty. Option D refers to definite situations, which are outside the scope of Possible Certainty. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate choice as it aligns with the concept of Possible Certainty.
