That’s the point though, isn’t it? Many people have devoted their entire lives to “exploring the options” and still come up with basically nothing.

No, that's not the point. That what your think, and i think, it's a little harsh and dismissive for you to judge someone else's life work or experience or what they amount to and say they've achieved nothing. I bet a lot of other actual human beings would reject your characterization of them. I think you should think of that and I think not enough people remember the human in this topic. And I think that's selfish and cruel
To be fair though, that can also be said about a lot of actual historical discoveries and scientific breakthroughs.
I’m much more willing to accept this corollary with Aliens than Bigfoot. Two very different topics.
