I learned in my high school English lessons that evidently is kind of a false friend and that I should use 'obviously' rather than something that mean 'according to evidence'. It was Oxford's English though, so the meaning in real life might have changed now.

My point is that there is a plethora of alternatives which would be more concise in conveying whatever the authors had in mind. "Evidently" is a weasel word in this case, and it's just leaving us readers to speculate and argue.
