Okay lets try an analogy to what you are doing (or rather a parody), and hope you see how unreasonable you are being.

Person A says that finding a boulder on earth that falls upwards would be irreconcilable with the theory of gravitation.

Person B responds that it is just Person A's "opinion of what might happen if some fictional thing were found". Person B further claim that no matter what observation is found, physicists "would just make it fit. They always do."

Person A tries to explain that a boulder falling upwards would be totally irreconcilable with the theory of gravitation.

Person B claims "this is just your opinion", and links to a book detailing the problem of dark matter as an example of how physicists ignore data that doesn't fit.

Peron A points responds that that is off topic.

Person B claims "You are the one limiting it to 'boulders' I never did."

So far, that is the case. All you have is speculation about what they would do with some fictional thing if it were found. Until my premise is proven wrong by actual change in behavior in the 'evol community,' then my premise is just as valid as that of evolution at this point. :)

Have a nice ride.
