I don’t know the particulars of this debate, but as it is written, the claim is (IMO) trivially true: most people offering “out there” views are wrong. The hypothesis space is infinite. On the other hand, it’s useful to have epistemic practices that help distinguish true from false. A good one is experimental confirmation. That seems to be challenging to acquire here.
