Your comment presupposes that this mysterious phenomenon that in some cases apparently can't be explained is indeed caused by literal aliens from another world, with motives and reasoning similar in some basic way to our own. What if it isn't either of these things at all but remains as something without a clear explanation? We don't actually know what a certain genuinely currently inexplicable (and they do exist) subset of UFO encounters really are. The common assumption is that they're extraterrestrials of some kind, but that might be completely wrong, and the reality (whatever it is) subject to rules of "behavior" that don't have to and don't in practice at all conform to how human cognition and logic normally operate or reason.
- MrJohz 5y agoTbh, that sort of answer makes more sense to me. After all, the literal meaning of "UFO" is just something that flies that hasn't been clearly identified. In that sense, a UFO could well be a secret vehicle from another country, a homemade drone that doesn't behave as expected, a previously unknown weather condition, or something else equally mundane.
