"A occurred" vs. "something must happen"

+0
−0
  1. Why doesn't "Something must happen" mean $s_{actual} \in A$?

  2. Scilicet, doesn't "A occurs" mean the same thing as "something must happen"? Something must happen. $\iff$ Some event must happen. $\iff$ At least one event must happen $\iff$ Call this event A. Then A occurred.
