If we continue with your analogy, then you're going to not believe it, but a squirrel came in through the kitchen window and took a cookie. It sounds unlikely, but consider: * A raccoon took a cookie a few weeks ago, and of course you remember when the cat got onto the counter and took a cookie last year (remember SARS and MERS?) * We have footage from the home-security camera showing the squirrel entering the window from the outside and running off with the cookie (genetics comfirms natural evolutionary rate, disconfirms gene edits to SARS-COV-2) * There's a family of squirrels living in the tree whose branches come up to the window (SARS is prevalent in bats and key features of its virulence and provoked immune response come from known SARS viruses in bats and pangolins) You could be right, but you need non-circumstantial evidence in order to counter our molecular genetic studies.
