You obviously need to bring evidence to back up your claims, that is not in dispute here, the issue I have is that for some reason the normal evidence isn't good enough, evidence that in any other point would be fine, but just in the arbitrary case it is deemed not enough.
Any evidence that prooves an extraordinary claim will by definition be extraordinary.
So as long as you submit the normal kind of evidence needed to describe how to reproduce the claim, and others can verify your claim, the evidence is fine.
I think you're saying the same thing by different routes.
