Yea it's a pretty standard way to assess risk / probability. Given the probability of each assumption and multiply by each other to get total probability.

Easy way to think about is Russian roulette, each time you have 5/6 (83%) chance of surviving, so that's pretty good odds right? But if you play it twice, your chance of surviving is 5/6 * 5/6 (69%), while 3 of them your survival chance becomes 57%, a little over half.

So each thing happening may be independently toss up or even likely, for all three to happen, it becomes quite unlikely.

I think the issue that many don't realize is the percentage is expressed as a decimal, I.e. 0.17 instead of 17%, so it looks smaller than it is.
