The contention is that the **moat walls** around the Monument have vertical weathering - the Monument itself only has horizontal weathering.

Your contention is made by people who have never been allowed into the moat and have only seen images. Like the hippy geologist character.

The Giza complex was build as a unit incorporating geometry based on Golden Sections and Triangles, and incorporates Fibonacci configurations, not a bunch of randomly placed monuments.

Menkaure is supposed to be the youngest pyramid, but based on Optical Thermoluminescence dating, it is **older** than the dates accepted for the other two.

“Stating that the smallest pyramid at Giza is the youngest rather proves the point that largest pyramids are the oldest” - no it does not. Logical fallacy- that’s an assumption, not a fact.

Well, not that its the best source but WP has a picture of the Great Sphinx of Giza along with the caption, "Vertical weathering on the body of the Sphinx":
Sphinx water erosion hypothesis
It also notes that the weathering of the head and neck was repaired in the 1920s. Nice straw man argument, but it doesn't work.

Well why weren't the larger two pyramids at Giza tested scientifically for their age? Or were they tested, but the results haven't been released because the science doesn't agree with the "experts"?

no it does not. Logical fallacy- that’s an assumption, not a fact.

It was your statement, and therefore, your fallacy if any. That begs the question as to why there was no testing of the larger two pyramids to scientifically determine their age?

An while we are at it, why not scientifically test the Great Sphinx to determine its age just like the Menkaure pyramid? That should end the debate, right? Was it tested but the results don't agree with the experts, so it hasn't been released to the public?
