It sounds like you're just dead set on defending the rude way of dismissing someone's comment? "Might just have been answered" is a completely valid description of what happened: the correct hypothesis might have been produced. It is obvious to anyone that it still requires verification; producing an answer is not the same as proving it beyond a shadow of doubt, and no one said it was. You're pretending to debate some philosophy of science but actually are playing pedantic word games to sound smart or gatekeep or something.
