They're usually classified because they reveal information on sensor capabilities, NASA's director talked about that at the press conference.

And yet they are able to declassify some of them. Why only declassify three blurry dots in 2017 and one blurry sphere in 2022 when according to AARO they have about a thousand reports, including fifty sightings showing "anomalous" characteristics? The rather mundane-looking blurry stuff released in 2017 was captured using military equipment and it didn't stop them.

Didn't GOFAST/GIMBAL and the Nimitz tic-tac video leak? That could have given them convenient choices to look like they were cooperating.

Could they be covering something up? I can't say it's impossible.

I'm just saying that between the tendency towards overclassification, the UFO stigma, and seemingly legimitate counterintel concerns, it doesn't seem like this refusal is evidence of a cover-up in and of itself.

I agree 100%
