Nah, you've made it clear that an "Armchair scientist" couldn't convince you the sky is blue, ice is cold, or the sun is warm. So you'll have to convince yourself.

My role here is to point you in the direction of water, not to drink it for you.

You are a scientist, right? A least you play one on the internet.

So you laid out a one hypothesis. Orbital cycles drive climate, Milankovitch and whatnot. It's certainly a more reasonable premise than cowfarts and volcanoes, especially when isolated to the quaternary. But of course, climate change enjoys no such isolation.

In fact whereas by definition, orbital cycles would need be the norm rather than the exception, our quaternary climate is the exception rather than the norm. Hence the question, does the Cenozoic climate appear compatible with a Milankovitch premise?
