I honestly don't see that much difference in assuming a statement is true, or assuming a peice of paper on which the statement is written, contains only true statements.
I'm not sure you see that you are still assuming the same total weight in assumuptions... one heavy assumption or several lighter ones.
The deduction is pretty thin, and itself requires some additional assumption (for example the ones I mentioned earlier).
