Let me translate. They said, “I will disclaim I am a professional structural biologist that works in this field every day.”

That is synonymous with saying, “I will deny I am a professional structural biologist that works in this field every day.”

The person posting is actually a structural biologist. What they stated was cognitively dissonant with the intent of their post, and that’s what stopped me.

I don’t pay attention to typos or minor usage issues, but in this case, I read two more sentences and said, “What??”

EDIT: Two more things. First, I found the post interesting and useful. I didn’t say anything about breaking the argument.

Second, “I need to disclose…” is the exact opposite of what they said.

Looks like the downvotes say that your interpretation of this language in this context is not the most common interpretation.
