also that the statistical likelihood of another life form with the same or greater intelligence as humans contacting us on this timeline is so infinitely small that its not even worth thinking about.

I'd be more inclined to believe they're probes from higher dimensional beings than that they're intelligent life from other stars/planets, but even that I'd give astronomically low odds to. It's like a 99.999999999% chance it's some unknown phenomenon or misunderstood sensor reading/glitch, 0.0000000009% chance it's something from a higher dimension, and 0.0000000001% chance it's aliens.

see that would actually be interesting…an upper dimensional being somehow presenting in our observable dimensions (like how a cube would appear as a line flashing in and out while passing through the 2nd dimension)…that would be a fun (and maybe probable) conspiracy theory…real science and theory is actually even more insane and fantastical than made up conspiracies
