Agreed, there is an infinitesimal chance of intersecting something with such large significance as the pyramids. My point was to show that by leaving 1 of only 2 chosen variables open AND having a variable that can be set to many different values along a continuum, you significantly increase optionality for how you could retrospectively jump through hoops to assign importance to what is just a coincidence.
One further thought would be this example chose a single hypothesis a conspiracy theorist may try to prove, when in reality they will be looking for these ‘proofs’ in many different places. If they don’t find the connection in one place they’ll just keep looking.
