My Shub-Niggurath theory still hold on!
Did you read the title? It clearly states that there's an alien megastructure. You think those aliens got where they are today with smooth, cold logic, like the type you're spewing here? No! They did it with clickbait and eliminating all drugs from their solar system. But I'm still glad ooli posted this, just so Hubski could (as usual) put together a better argument than paid "journalists".
Further, I don't think the razor applies when there are a fuckton of observable stars. The simplest thing happens 99 times out of 100, maybe, but that still means all kinda weird shit is out there.Ockham's razor is not a scientific principle. It is entirely possible that this star has something else weird going on with it, and also has comets orbiting it, and Schafer has not disputed this in his paper beyond "well, the simplest solution is usually right"
