Ah this is a classic language misunderstanding. "Isn't necessarily" means "possibly not [thing]" or "doesn't have to be" or "may or may not be" but doesn't have much bearing on probabilities.

That's how people usually use that term in English anyway.

EDIT sorry didn't mean to dogpile. I just saw that a couple other people already replied.
