"It's impossible for two different files to have the same SHA256 hash"
Should I replace this with "nearly impossible"? The problem that while "nearly impossible" is more accurate, it's less precise. Saying "impossible" is less accurate but more precise.

Saying "nearly impossible" vastly overstates the possibility. It's like in Dumb and Dumber "so you are saying there's a chance!!!". No, the chance is essentially zero.
If it's possible, do it.
If you can't do it (and you can't) then it's impossible.
Anyway, I worry about "accurate" vs. "precision".

I'm over 5ft tall. this is 100% accurate, but only about 80% precise.
I'm 5ft 10inches. This is inaccurate, but 98% precise.
