Because then we would know that they existed, while now we only have speculation about their possible existence.
Why, or why not?
Let's suppose that somehow we here on Earth knew for a fact that there were several thousand intelligent species in our galaxy, and that 90 percent of them were at least 100,000 years ahead of us technologically.

How we discovered this is not important. The scientific community considers it as well established as anything in human knowledge. We also know that each of these civilizations is capable of travelling from any point in the galaxy to any other point in the galaxy in no more than three days.

Well if we knew for a fact that there were several thousand intelligent species residing in our galaxy, then of course we would consider that many UFO sightings were of extraterestrial origin....that goes without saying reallly!
The fact of your statement is that we don't know that there are several thousand intelligent species in our galaxy, so that sort of nullifies the "let's suppose" arguement really.
