The dumbest part of this “conspiracy” is that these are the same people who would find an inscription that says “Wednesdays will repeat every 16 years” and try to make a case that the repeating years is part of something bigger while missing the fact that Wednesday existed.
Even if this were true, these aliens would be ridiculously stupid.
Alien A: “What usable technology and advancements could we hand down to a society of people that has just barely invented writing and is trying to figure out how to use metal?”
Alien B: “How about medicinal plants? Lessons about cleanliness and health? Advanced mathematics?”
Alien A: “No! Give them images of airplanes and flying machines!”
I think it’s no small coincidence that the knowledge these aliens supposedly passed on just HAPPENS to coincide with the simplest idiot’s concept of the most important advances in human knowledge.
