As a detailed post analysis, I certainly agree.
In the 15 seconds I have to do hand analysis during a play, I simply make lumps of hands. Most are usually divisible by four, so I simplify the lumps further. AK = 4, TT = 3.
If those are the only 2 hands, it's roughly 60% likely I'm ahead...

I guess we disagree on the playing habits of our opponents then. Lets just assume for the sake of simplicity that there are 12 combos of AK, and 12 combos of PP. I cannot, and will not say that these two holdings are equally plausable. In this hand, I think he would play AK at least twice as often as the PP here.
Although using 100% is fine, if you are able to drop the possibility of something, it really can be helpful for getting a more correct analysis. Using 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% is perfectly fine, and way more accurate then saying "He could have 22, so 6 combos, he couldn't have 33, so 0 combos", when in reality, he only has 22 50% of the time, and has 33 10% of the time.
