Isn't it a good thing then that we have conflicting opinions among experts? It causes more dialogue and research.
That said, the argument only becomes moot if you choose that as the only word you're willing to take.
The initial article was scientific speculation that the FMM fires
may have been caused
in part due to climate change.
