Seems to me to be describing the idea that you can't predict alternative outcomes of events presuming preceding events may have happened differently.
Example. If not for the bad call by the referee, my team would have won the game.
If you factor out the bad call, you don't have any idea what other events would have triggered or unfolded, so the idea that you can say your team would have won is wrong. Any number of other events may have intervened.

I have been able to find no data on the person named, and wonder if you have spelled it correctly.
