Then they did, and you've called that evidence unconvincing. But it is still evidence. More than the zero you've gotten (or requested) from the original claim.
No, I did not see any evidence there at all, and I wrote my comment on the basis of that.
Having seen the subsequent replies, I can now see how other people have taken it as a form of evidence.
While I can now see why other people might consider it evidence for the claim, I do not consider it to be such myself (in the sense of 'evidence' being something that supports a claim).
