3I contend the duplicate claim. This question asks for でしょう when used alone. The answers to the other questions use でしょう as part of the sentence.– Flaw ♦Jul 21, 2018 at 16:20

I think when a question is bumped to the homepage for having a limited answer, the message should include a specific request for new answers. As it stands now, people reading the "bumped to homepage" message may simply choose to vote on the answer given, rather than try to provide a better one.– ericfromabenoAug 20, 2018 at 16:47

Depending on context, it could mean those things you said, but the simplest way to parse deshou is "right?" or "I know, right?"
(specifically in response to something you've just said, as mentioned in your question)
