i say so what
ad hoc are not fine for if maths is inconsistent any thing can be shown
about an ado hoc
ie it could be proved that the epsilon
conjecture, is false

and until math is shown to be not inconsistent that negative proof is a
posssiblity so wiles has proved nothing

No. When wiles says he has produced a proof,
then he only said that and not more.

It would follow automatically from consistency,
that there is no proof of the contrary.

And it would follow automatically from inconsistency
that there is a proof of the contrary.

So there is nothing to do for wiles.

Its enough to provide a proof. And thats it.
The rest follows automatically.
