To return to seriousness for a moment, for me it is hilarious since "it's aliens!" is sort of a default claim of various woos and creduloids for anything they have not bothered to open a science book to explain. That and it is X Files like when the writers run out of an explanation they would create an "alien" to explain it. "The Black Oil Aliens?" "NOES! THE ONES WITH NO FACES!!!"

A reference I made which most may not get had to do with a series where the author sort of gave a "red herring" to suggest "it's aliens!" when it was not.

For me, "it's aliens!!1!!" is a very weak answer. So if we find the whole place is a petri dish on some Alien Laboratory Desk, or Aliens mated with a few Milk Maids and created Shifters, or something on that line I would be thoroughly disappointed.

Absent actual evidence we can get a bit silly, just as we "leak spoilers" that Eren has been shouting "HOLD THE DOOR!" since he was knocked out by Colossal Titan. . ..
