In logic, more specifically in the context of natural deduction systems, an assumption is made in the expectation that it will be discharged in due course via a separate argument.

Are you sure you've not set us on a wild goose chase?
Have you double-checked your spelling? Is it not really PRESUMPTUOUS! which means too bold or daring! Presumptive from the verb to presume means means to suppose or to take liberties or simply to dare.
If you erred in spelling, own up immediately and tender apologies unless you are too presumptuous to presume our wrath!
Thanks.
