Skimmed the article and it seemed like a lot of speculation and redacted military communications. From Wikipedia:

On February 16, 2023, US President Joe Biden stated that the downed object was probably a civilian-owned balloon and "most likely tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions".

We need to put more stock in a FOIA release of internal NORAD logs, than WH public statements, here. You wouldn't say?

Yeah fun to read, but jesus "redacted in full: perhaps <insane made up bullshit>" every second entry

Insane made up bullshit seems a bit of stretch when NORAD gave it a UAP designator.

NORAD giving it a UAP designator is not a free license to fill in the (numerous) blanks with whatever you want.

Hahaha! It's not blanks. UAP.
