That's probably because your request is basically pre-selecting those who want
to believe in the VM and sort of rules out the rest of us who think it is
probably a fake.

In the sense that you're asking the irrational folk for a rational
justification for their position. You get squid ink instead. This should be no
surprise.

If you want cogent arguments you ought to assert a belief in the map and ask
for reasons to think it is fake.
