Hanlon's razor is an intellectually dishonest way to prematurely end a discussion and claim you're right without any evidence. The next time I steal 10,000 BTC from a bitcoin exchange I'm hired to code for, remind me to crawl sites for discussions about the incident so I can throw the term "Hanlon's razor" around and demoralize the seeds of investigation before they sprout.

Why would you ever feel compelled to invoke Hanlon's razor? Are you not intrigued by the possibility of malice? Is it so painful to speculate? Does it frighten you to think you might live in a world where bad things happen because people actually do them on purpose most of the time and lie to cover it up? What bothers you about this so much that you don't even want to begin to talk about it? Other than that, I see no reason to suffocate a discussion with Hanlon's razor unless you are affiliated with or secretly rooting for the possibly guilty party.

GP only said "i think", GP is not suffocating any discussion. I doubt serious investigations care for what random people say on internet forums.

I think your accusations at the end are unfair and out of place, not to say ridiculous.
