Which bit are you complaining about?  The complexity class of
factorisation was not known then and is not known today so all opinions
about it are just "thoughts" rather than proofs.  Do you object to the
fact that most well-informed people agreed on the notion that it appears
to be hard?  Everywhere but on Usenet that's often a sign that the
opinion is worth listening to.

I've no idea what that means, but that's a language thing, I think.
