The thing that always needs to be considered upon hearing a conspiracy theory: the entity or entities allegedly engaging in a conspiracy that has remained secret for an appreciable period must be hyper-competent enough to keep said secrets, and if that entity fucks up regularly, it becomes increasingly unlikely.

Or to put it another way, a successful conspirator cannot be both some evil mastermind and some incompetent fuck up at the same time if you want your theory to make any sense.

Unless you want to play games about that being staged to make you believe they’re incompetent, in which case I wish you a great time in Wonderland.
