That's true to some extent - I could spin up a few hundred accounts predicting something specific happen on a specific date for the next couple of years (a Russian surrender, Boris Johnson sex scandal, whatever) and claim that I'm Nostradamus when one of them hits gold. But it seems like this account accurately predicted not only that it would happen but also predicted the manner that it would happen, and explained in detail why it would happen. That feels a bit more substantial.
