    I didn’t say anything about the simpler solution having to be true? Having complicated and interconnected answers to simple unrelated questions is an indicaior of a conspiracy theorist, and Occam’s razor gets that point across without spelling it out

      You said ‘ignoring Occams razor’, as if that invalidates any hypothesis. And it doesn’t

      However I have but that technicality to spell out, I’m not implying the truth of the matter either.

      I’m just crusading about the misunderstanding of the use of Occams razor, I’m not trying to undermine your comment.
