There’s an important difference between evidence and proof.

Evidence is anything that helps inform a question — even if it’s incomplete.

Proof is something that settles it beyond reasonable doubt.

Most real-world topics don’t start with proof — they start with patterns, testimony, and partial information.

The question isn’t

‘Is this perfect proof?’

The question is ‘Does this contribute to a pattern worth paying attention to?’

If blurry footage is dismissed, and clear footage is also dismissed, then the issue isn’t the quality of evidence — it’s that no evidence is being allowed to count.
