Interesting to see the number of people arguing that it can't be fake.

I couldn't actually see anybody taking that line? There's a lot of quibbling about whether individual details like hiking to the wreckage indicate that it's fake or not, but there's also a pretty consistent view that there's a whole lot of red flags and the sum total is suspicious as hell.

I agree. I read all 414 comments (go me). The closest two I found were:
