Ok but nothing I've ever experienced or witnessed has ever made sense, literally nothing ever fits any form of reason or logic - a thousand years from now if they write off all the things from our lives that make no sense or are absurd then the vision they come up with won't resemble reality at all, not one little bit.

So when someone says 'its unlikely they'd waste resources' or 'this would be totally unfeasible and require insane amounts of totally needless extra measures while providing no benefit what so ever' that just makes it feel even more likely to me, like yes of course that's what they did that's what we always do!

Sounds like an interesting video though, I'm going to watch it but I'll be thinking about aliens and trying to find cracks in the narrative where I can poke them in!
