This is a false equivalency. Just because there are two options (ignoring "I don't know/I don't care/Satoshi who?") doesn't mean they are equally valid. The only way your statement makes sense to me given what has transpired is if you are saying that at a philosophical level nothing can be known with certainty and therefore to be certain of anything is to be wrong. That's a good way to get excused from a jury but not a great way of making sense of the world.
