> “I think we have a good chance of achieving this”

That's still not promising anything though. It's setting expectations, but failing to meet expectations is not the same as failing to meet promises.

If I buy a movie ticket I can get disappointed about the film being bad (failing to meet expectation of enjoyment), but I'd get upset if they cancelled the screening after I bought a ticket (failing to meet promise of viewing).
