I don't know. There sure seems like some unwarranted wiggle room at
the end; I wonder why it was phrased that way.
It seems to me that it's not really worth mentioning the slender
possibility that any as yet unidentified exotic mechanisms might link
as yet undetected variability in as yet unspecified secondary
characteristics of an essentially stable sun to signifcantly
interdecadal climate change. It might be pixie dust, too.
