Agreed. If Billy Bob thinks there is just 1 type of alien and it's a demon, and his moonshine buddy Cletus considers him insane because there are no aliens at all (due to a lack of readily available evidence), we won't be going far. So there is use in these soft disclosure articles popping up lately and more and more higher res video of craft like this one.
