I mean, sure, it's clever. Who would want to make A C Compiler out of Universities and Special Editions? Still, sometimes you have to accuse, even if it's on imperfect information.
Get a Clue board game for an example. Let's assume you've seen all the people except for Colonel Mustard and Mrs. White, but you've noticed that when other players have guessed involving Mrs. White, they've always been shown a card from one certain player. Thus, you can assume that Colonel Mustard is the culprit, and accuse him. What's so wrong about that?
It's true that you're wrong sometimes, but still you have to go on accusing, partly because you'll never know until you do accuse, and your wrong accusations help you refine your accusing sense and allow you to make right accusations.
...Er, actually this argument isn't making that much sense, so I'll just assume Zeke was talking about something else, and accuse Colonel Mustard, in the kitchen, with the knife.

Ha! I was right!
