I think the issue falls into the problem of getting reliable information out of China.

Because of a lack of access and free speech it's hard to get verifiable evidence to it's origin being from a lab leak or a market in either direction.

Unfortunately, because of that lack of access mistrust and conspiracy theories spread like wild fires.

It's important with science to understand that there is what happened or what is observed and to separate that away from wishful thinking or feelings.
