you are saying that if there are n possibilities and we have no evidence then probability is 1/n rather than 1/2. But for these topics there is an infinite set of discrete possibilities. Since the set is infinite it doesn't make sense to have uniform prior because there is no way for the probabilities to add up to 1.
