Very few people deny that it could be the case at all - reddit, and even this forum at various points, made something out of an industry of trying to find ways to blame the ancients for their downfall, and I am sure a vague enough description that could cover a range of different scenarios will serve to confirm such speculation in the minds of some people. Meanwhile, for many of us, irrespective of narrative preferences, it remains an open possibility, either way.
