You miss this report?
Yes. Or maybe it hadn't been published when I looked, but either way I hadn't seen it.

I would expect more information on background to come out over time like this. As I said above Maybe he is, maybe not. But making the link in the headline until we know is presumptuous.

We now have some anecdotal evidence he is and no doubt more will arrive. Even so, I still hold it was presumptuous, though there now is accumulating evidence the guess was right.
