You keep repeating this mantra of yours. But it's never been true.
The thing standing not in need of proof is and always has been:
"we have sufficient information to know the truth of that."

If something exists, then it produces spoor, right?

What "information" (spoor) does the nonexistent produce?

Please remember, "There is no X" is not asserting the
truth of anything,

Then why bother saying it,
