Did I say that House Res. 593 “proved” anything?

By implication. What other point is there to citing 378-0?

The resolution might help to explain why the House has been so reluctant to hold hearings on the natural born citizen issue.

The Reluctance is easily explainable by politics. The Democrats absolutely don't care whether their guy is legit or not. The Republicans are terrified that they will be labelled "racists" by the national news media if they make an issue out of this guy's ancestry.

Neither side is motivated by any interest in learning the objective truth. They just want it to go away for their political well being. They are pragmatic, and resent anyone rocking the boat over some trivial principle.

I’m guessing that you don’t really expect politicians to not be motivated by politics.
“All’s fair in love, war, and politics.” While politicians may intensely dislike the opposition and their policy positions, they all have a deep, abiding respect for whoever it is that goes through the entire grueling process and emerges on top in their chosen profession. They all know how hard it is to get elected to any position and most especially the presidency.
If there was anything to be uncovered, the hundreds of millions of dollars that The Koch Brothers, Donald Trump and Sheldon Adelson alone put into ridding us of Barack Obama should have uncovered a few scintillas of evidence. It didn’t.
