A psyop doesn’t have to be a super advanced operation. It could be some low effort opportunistic thing that helps objectives. The “declassified” UAP videos so far are rote footage containing easily debunked garbage. Why would the military release lens flare videos and claim they’re UAP? They could be blithering idiots not knowing they’re looking at lens flare, which is probably less likely than knowing it’s BS and claiming it’s UAP with some ulterior motive. So, psyop.

A more mundane possibility: Someone thought, "Hey, you know, if there are aliens doing thing secretly, we'd want to know about it, right? And also, there are always going to be these stories, and if our answer is always, 'No that's probably lens flare', people are going to think we're trying to cover something up. So how about we just make a policy, that any time someone has unexplained phenomena, we log it properly? Either we'll get a long track record of nothing-burgers, or we'll actually find something. Or, maybe we'll have 50 years of nothing-burgers, followed by something actually different, and we'll have a solid 'baseline' from which to look into the new phenomenon."

  That makes sense, but it’s pretty insidious to release lens flare videos as UAP knowing they’re lens flare. Either they’re not actually analyzing these videos or they’re going pretty far into psyop land with this mundane operation.
