Federal Rule of Evidence 401 defines relevance, not the final standard of admissibility. The rule states that evidence is relevant if it has any tendency to make a fact more or less probable than it would be without the evidence and if the fact is of consequence in determining the action. The final admissibility of evidence is determined by a combination of factors, including relevance, reliability, and whether its probative value outweighs its prejudicial effect, among others, as outlined in various rules and not solely by Rule 401.
