2. He denied publicly that he is.
3. Newsweek won't release the video
4. Satoshi p2p account
5. Common sense that the guy who encrypted everything even his email address would not use his real name.

What makes you think he has the skills? Does he have a background specifically in software and cryptography? My dad is a PhD engineer , very smart but he couldn't make bitcoin... Also the time one argument is very weak ,even if true, and probably isn't because the time zone was never consistent

I considered only the circumstancial evidence; not any statements from either party after the Newsweek allegation.

Satoshi p2p account is not evidence for or against; it is consistent regardless of Dorian being Satoshi or not.

As I said, the most compelling piece of evidence is the name match. Regarding the other pieces, they are weak as you say, but still consistent.

Yes, this is the most compelling piece of evidence against Dorian NOT being Satoshi.
