There is no evidence that the Dogon myths are any older than the information that was brought to them by teachers that went to the area in the 1930s.
What is interesting of course is that the Dogon have no knowledge of Sirius C.
You also say Herschel was not an astronomer. What would you like to call the person credited with the discovery of Uranus and later appointed the
King's astronomer?
But back to the thread's topic. You mentioned issues with other people, but did not mention a single contribution by V. All you did was give him a
glowing endorsement.
I personally find it hard to call him an inter-disciplinarian when he clearly did not make any effort to see if the claimed orbits and mechanics work.
