"Trying to show"?  I think this is called "A Conclusion in Search of
Supporting Data" - searching all the available data for subsets that
support your hypothesis, and ignoring or rejecting contrary data.  The
Feducciaries are notorious for this.

Booooooooooooo!!!  Hiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssss!!   ;-)

I'm hoping that the next Act of "Much Ado About Nothing: Aves and
Apomorphies" features a more convincing plot, and a better performance
from some of the lead characters (including Semilunate Carpal and
Lateral Glenoid).  At the moment, I'm not certain if the story is a
comedy or a tragedy; it has elements of both.
