é justificável afirmar que (...) equivale a
Explanation:
Arguably aqui significa "que pode ser justificado, defendido":

That can be argued plausibly; defensible in argument: three arguable points of law. (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/arguably)

Na verdade, o autor da frase crê que sua afirmação procede, é bem fundamentada.

disagree  José Ignacio Coelho Mendes Neto (X): A frase não está questionando a relação entre cercamento e intenção de posse, mas sim afirmando que ela existe. "Arguably" é praticamente sempre usado nesse sentido positivo, que é o contrário de "discutível".
