my lay person understanding of the law is that in situations like these you don't need to prove what should be so overwhelmingly self-evident
there's probably some Latin phrase for it a lawyer would just know but when a thing is so far away from a gray area of reasonableness you're fine
you shouldn't need hard evidence, people as a rule don't like to set themselves on fire
