That is a bold, positive claim made with a very certain voice. And precisely because there is no way to verify this, it is impossible to prove or disprove. Which places it fully in the realm of unsupported speculation.
Had there been some form of tempering, clearly identifying it as opinion or speculation, then I’d have no problem with it.
