That pretty much settles it as far as I'm concerned.

    screenshots from a single source don't prove much though, they can be easily doctored. Not saying that they are, but twitter could use that angle to make the case. That's why services like archive.org are so important IMO, having an unbiased third party take a snapshot of a site that corroborates with what you're seeing is gold. It's a shame though that I don't think archive.org can actually do this with twitter in this way?

    if the source doesn't lie they very much prove it. the number of sources doesn't mean anything because a doctored screenshot can easily be spread by many, it's the quality of source that matters.

    Twitter is heavily heavily heavily monitored by bots day in and out. This is how we have news articles about the latest Boebert tweet that she deleted minutes after drunk posting it. These shots could be corroborated a million different ways.
