Yes, I also believe that they have points in common, my interest waned because I got stuffed with UFO and extraterrestrial content, and I researched too much at the time, I don't feel the same curiosity as before, especially when I started to be interested, logically, in addition to being 10 years old at that time.
My belief has been reinforced by everything I have researched, it would be very cynical of me to simply say that they do not exist when there is so much evidence to the contrary.
