Whoa! Hold on there big fella.
You know there is no such word as “presumptiveness” don’t you?
... but let’s go with it anyway.
You probably meant to express the thought “such presumption!” or “boy, they have presumptive ideas!”?
They both work in a way.
Presumptive: “giving grounds for reasonable opinion or belief”
Presumption: an attitude or belief dictated by probability : ASSUMPTION
b : the ground, reason, or evidence lending probability to a belief
3 : a legal inference as to the existence or truth of a fact not certainly known that is drawn from the known or proved existence of some other fact
