There really is pretty much exact science in poker. Of course, you're not doing the calculations at the table. But this is why we discuss hands afterwards with consideration of the math and the stuff you take back to the table boils down to about "raise in position against multiple opps with strong draws".

It's clear you don't understand the concept of pot equity and don't care to listen. You're just trying to get the last word in now. No problem...go for it.
