That it was embraced by the ancient aliens crowd does not dismiss the findings. It has what appears to be water erosion, now the claim should be challenged if you do not believe it was made by water erosion and truely believe it was made by something else.

The problem is when things are ignored because they are inconvenient and you settle on attacking the individuals to the point where if you do not 100% believe in what the Egyptologist say then you must be an ancient aliens believer.

I'm sure some people are motivated by such a belief but ancient aliens is the same as giving up and saying that god did it, it does nothing to get you closer to understanding anything, if anything it gets you infinitely farther since in your eyes there is nothing to figure out.
