[darkmanifest]

In fact, the vast majority of my beliefs fall into that latter category to varying degrees of "probably" and "maybe," because there's always the chance of new evidence arising or that I've misunderstood the evidence I do have.

That right there is what most people do, I think. Their beliefs are fluid based on what they've learned most recently. They either give one of many possibilities primacy, hold all possibilities in equal favor without committing to any one, or rejecting them all until conclusive evidence is provided. Or all of the above depending on the day of the week.

I would say the choosing lies in what possibilities they want to acknowledge at all. When evidence is inconclusive or unavailable, they believe or disbelieve the various options, they don't, as you seem to, withhold final judgment until further information can be provided.

Which I suspect is where your confusion is coming from? When conclusive evidence is not available, you therefore don't conclude - it's not a choice for you because there's nothing to choose, either something is proven or it isn't. Whereas others may not wait for conclusive evidence, they make their own conclusions without any additional information other than "This is what I want to be true." Does that make sense?
