Yes. Because we know that the tombs and relics of martyrs and other saints were treasured and venerated by the early Christians. The TOTAL absence of any tradition regarding a tomb of Mary, or any relics of Mary IS powerful evidence.

It most certainly is. It’s evidence of her total irrelevance in the teachings of the apostles or that it was considered of importance to the Holy Spirit to have them mention her.
