Theories are meant to be proven / dis-proven (and by the majority of the replies, this theory is certainly leaning towards being dis-proven, but we will not know until the new camera is revealed). Theories are not a definite statement, and hence cannot be lies.


you know the difference between a theory and a wild guess?

a theory is based on a body of evidence.

Germ Theory for instance
Music Theory for instance
Evolutionary Theory for instance

(just checked - you are American and are force fed "its only a theory", which, in American, means, "some guy just made this up")

I do agree that GUESS would have been a better title. However, from Merriam-Webster's dictionary, there is a varied definition of the word:
noun \ˈthē-ə-rē, ˈthir-ē\
plural the·o·ries
Definition of THEORY
: abstract thought : speculation




That's just like an American to cite an American dictionary.
