You know how like, people view web pages? Each time they look at a page on this site, they see a certain number of posts. The particular post you're talking about didn't show up on the computer screens for more than 0.02% of the user population

All you have to do is say
"Yeah, I think it's somewhat likely that a significant portion of the user base saw that post"
