I think you've misinterpreted the parent commenter (gnz11). They were referring specifically to the Hancock Netflix documentary mention hence the "> Netflix Docu" quoting from GP's comment, and not at all suggesting that the Younger Dryas is Hancock's theory.
The "random link" to the Guardian article is about the Hancock documentary and reasonably valid to mention, even if it is an opinion piece. The article does not conflate the Younger Dryas theory with Hancocks pseudoscience, in fact there's no mention of the theory. Also if you read the Guardian article to the end it has an interesting observation:
"If you don’t like Hancock’s story about the super-intelligent advanced civilisation being wiped off the face of the planet, here’s another that might explain how Netflix gave the greenlight to Ancient Apocalypse: the platform’s senior manager of unscripted originals happens to be Hancock’s son. Honestly, what are the chances?"
