PROBABILITY: is it true that a sample space must be also an event?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

I think for reasonable constraint in order to perform calculation, it must be true or a condition that must be met

I think so... An event is a subset of sample space, so sample space must also be an event since \(S \subseteq S\)

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

since sample space, S, is a collection of all possible outcomes (events) of an experiment, then S must be an event(s) itself.
