Although I very much respect Seth Shostack and the work he does, I think he is "going out on a limb" making predictions without any actual supportive evidence.
What he is doing is
speculating, and there is nothing "wrong" with that
as long as everyone agrees that it is only speculation.
That's where you seem to be having a problem...separating speculation, and opinion from established fact.
