I guess we would have to exami= ne all the other evidentials, and see whether EVIDENTIAL+nai usually means = "my evidence for this is of the kind opposite to EVIDENTIAL", or = whether it means "I lack evidence of the kind EVIDENTIAL for this"= ;. There are only two other evidentials that have a -nai defined (ba'a = and su'a) and both seem to go with the first approach. For the rest of = them no definition is offered, probably because no obvious opposite kind wa= s found.

Your scenario could actu= ally be a good example for "ba'a cu'i" ("I am findin= g out about it right now").
