Adam probably thinks that an encyclopedia should have facts laid out as such, not just vague guesses. It's understandable (although I don't agree with it) to present speculation as fact to mask uncertainty. Certainly other websites do it.

It may present the fact that there _is_ speculation. That's not the same thing.
