I don’t know yet” is a very valuable answer in science. It’s right, and it allows for further investigation. When you pretend you do know, and jump to an unsupported conclusion like “it must be a sea monster” you’re doing science, and yourself, a disservice. “I don’t know yet” is the answer that’s truly exciting.
