Let's hear it.
Don't you mean the "claims of UFO's"
Gullibility and delusion know no bounds, they can affect anyone.

Where did I say that?
What is bad science is ignoring knowledge because of a mindset .

Bad science is also discounting evidence to protect your own big sciency worldview.
What evidence comes from all walks of life?

(Fer cryin; out loud. We literally just went over this. Start back at post 3367.)
You try to lump all sort of different reports into one as if they're all the same:
"... a structured aerial wingless craft with illuminating lights performing extraordinary and even evasive flight maneuvers suggests highly intelligent intent, not some random fluke of nature...."
"After thousands of eyewitness accounts repeating these same details about ufos, I'm pretty sure it's fact by now."
You are conflating multiple accounts. You can't conflate do that until the have been resolved.
Otherwise, one could just as easily argue "There are thousands of cryptids spotted all over the world. This can;t be a coincidence. Obviously they're all due to the same cause."
No.
Since they haven;t been resolved, that means
1] It isn't even fact that there were real things to be sighted - unresolved means they can have been misidentifications of mundane critters, and
2] there's no way to link them, since different ones may well have different solutions (some are misIDs, some are hoaxes, some will never be resolved, some might well be bona fide). You simply can't say "they're all the same thing".
And you certainly can't say they're fact.

Nobody is discounting evidence.
Everybody is discounting your bad science and drawing hasty conclusions.

Who is claiming these ufo reports are unresolved? Who is claiming multiple accounts of ufos are conflated?

If they were, then by definition, they wouldn't be UFOs, would they? They'd be IFOs.
Or hoaxes, or Venus, or human craft that have been positively ID'd. Yes, those ones are resolved, and are no longer classified as UFOs.

No..a ufo account is resolved precisely because there is no other explanation other than that it is a ufo. A ufo account can't be an ifo account at the same time.
True .
Is there any tangible evidence aside from observations and experiences or is that it?
Something that isn't an observation or experience.
