Well said! And I agree with your distinction between good science and good math! It is the goal of science to DISPROVE things, NOT to prove them! It makes a "hypothesis" and then -- all the REAL scientists -- do their damnedest to Disprove the hypothesis. The clowns stand in back and promote the hypothesis as "truth".
If the hypothesis cannot YET be disproved, after prolonged atttempt, it gets elevated as a valid MODEL or Theory, while the search continues for a disproof or, at least, a partial disproof ... which will lead toward a more correct model/theory.
The key tipoff that someone is NOT actually a scientist (e.g. Fauci was not a scientist) is when they start MOUTHING about how you are supposed to "believe" the science and the scientists who puff things.
Scientists are BY DEFINIITION supposed to be constructive SKEPTICS. And recognize when they are out of their area of expertise ... so they will upgrade their background knowledge before opening their mouths too wide.
This is a good hypothesis. Good not in the sense that it is necessarily correct but in that it opens wide a FALSEHOOD which has been widely accepted as, ipso facto, proven: that humans have only one ancestor (even though there are a ton of things about that which don't make good sense and have little to no evidence with current explanations).
---
I'm going to go one step further and state something which is not "politically correct" but is backed by the overwhelming majority of evidence..and common sense:
"Humans" are NOT one species. Before the recent push by Our Masters to "blend" all cultures and genotypes together to create a mediocre mashup of AVERAGE characteristic, humanity was well down the road toward a multiplicity of sub-species with very different temperments, strengths, and capabilities.
Blending everything together is NOT a particularly good idea -- it is guaranteed to create average. The truth is some sub-species of humanity are better at throwing a spear and some sub-species produce nearly all the geniuses. To deny that is to deny reality and common sense ... which makes our Master happy, but doesn't promote humanity into the future very well.
