Darwin should have made it clear he wasn't interested in "going there," and simply taken life as axiomatic in his theory.... That way he could have had an origin of species argument without having to get into the origin of life issue. Which he himself never formally did; but his lack of clarity on the question has led to much what seems to me pointless speculation on the part of his disciples over time....

Is that intended to mean that only people who agree with the theory are engaged in pointless speculation, or that only their speculation is pointless?
