No, that's not how it works.  You have to prove it because you stated 
it.  Otherwise I can say stuff like "in the center of the earth lives a 
dragon named Fred, if you don't think that's correct, you are free to 
prove me wrong".

NB: I'm not doubting the popularity of fpc/lazarus, but you can't just 
make up statistics.
