The copy seems to assume that the user already realises that knowing “how sure you should be” and “being only as sure as the facts justify” is a good thing that will improve their life. But this is not immediately clear to a lot of people.

I suggest a more conversational style, e.g. “Did you know that being overconfident leads to making bad mistakes? Research shows that most people are way overconfident. Are you one of them?”

We could also go the “think you're good at guessing the future? prove it!” route.
