Given that moon hoax theories find little support in the scientific establishment, I would have thought that including the hypothesis which the scientific establishment does support would have been a sensible idea - the hypothesis (which you fail to include as a possibility) that it is faked footage of a real landing.
(I see where I went wrong – not recognising that none of your three hypotheses is one the scientific establishment would favour. So (h4) is that this is mock footage of the “faking” of the real moon landing – i.e. (h4) this footage is a spoof.)
I haven’t seen any convincing evidence that the moon landings were faked – I find none of the evidence you refer to – “wires,” missing rover tracks, “faulty” shadows, etc, to be persuasive.
