"I think a major issue with the claims was the shear confidence Wills had in their veracity."

Indeed.

Of course, he's made other (non libellious) claims with equal confidence in the replies to other articles (or another article[1]), with nothing to back up his claims other than the confidence with which he made them. I've no idea (obviously) wether there is any truth in what he said or not - but assuming they were[2], he's shot himself in the foot by making the claims he did which led to the this discussion, since now whatever claims he makes have to be read with a nagging doubt in mind.

[2] Which, TBH, I doubt anyway, but that's just pure opinion, with no evidence or inside knowledge to back it up.
