(A compassionate evolutionist!)
It's a good point to ask why, of all theories, only evolution gets a disclaimer. Would a disclaimer be necessary to present the theory of gravity, the atomic theory or even game theory?
They are all theories, that is, they describe a situation and can be used to develop testable answers. They differ from hypotheses which are simply educated guesses based on observation.
