> It isn't an unreasonable leap for people in our position with very limited information

No, this is exactly WHY it is unreasonable. This is how conspiracy theories work. Humans want causal understandings but they have limited information and their imaginations fill in the gaps. If you have little information you should also have low confidence. Look around here at how many people are certain of conspiracy. Look in the Twitter thread too. Much of what people are saying is highly unreasonable and this is not healthy for us as a community.
