Look up the latin phrase "Onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit, non ei qui negat". This is basic stuff humans have known for hundreds of years.

When you say "I know the President of Hungary is a space alien!", that is a positive claim.

You have the burden of proof when making a positive claim.

You shift the burden of proof when you tell people that they need to prove the President of Hungary is not a space alien.

You are welcome for the basic lesson everybody already knows. And it was free!
