Asking lawnchair_larry to give you a complete list of everyone he considers credible is disingenuous.

As the other commenter stated, if someone thought that someone credible made that claim they could simply provide that source, which both (1) involves asymptotically less effort for everyone involved and (2) under reasonable assumptions is at least as effective.

“Sir, I’m going to need for you to list for me all the crimes you didn’t commit last Saturday.”

Implying that was asked seems disingenuous to me, but I assume that wasn't your intent.

What I see is a request for clarification, specifically asking for the sources from which a conclusion was drawn.

It's not a police raid. Relax.
