It may help to note that ibidem has made earlier claims about how the meaning of "reliably evaluate evidence" is variable, so I suspect they would reject the claim that there's a correct answer towards which available information points at any given time.
More specifically, I would expect them to claim that there can be two or more mutually exclusive answers to which the same information points equally strongly, "depending on your paradigm."
