not


Explanation:
this is a question of style - the Spanish is long-winded, the English just needs "not"

neutral  PeterIII: I think your translation leaves out some of the uncertainty of the original text, using 'not' lends more finality and certainty to the translation which (IMO) doesn't exist in the source. I do agree that the text could be greatly reduced.
