tl;dr: There are so many possible explanations, and so little reason for us to expect to see any E.T.s that it's a complete non-issue.
You might as well wonder why the sun doesn't occasionally come up in the west instead of the east.

p.s., if you still consider the Fermi paradox an actual mystery, read this:

The only real mystery is which/how many of the many explanations is the reasons you haven't met E.T. yet.

>They are still in dispute.
One dissenter does qualify as dispute within the scientific community.
Even this guy can only find one other critic of Cavendish, and that's from 1902!
He's also very critical of:
>GR
>Calculus
>QM
>ignoring astronomy's effect on electronics
(yes, he thinks tides have a significant effect on common electronics)
> etc
Meanwhile this guy also not only doubts the conventional wisdom of centuries of scientific work, he also thinks he can correct many of the scientific communities errors.

Clearly he (and you) inflate your sense of self worth by believing you're smarter than history's leading scientific minds.
And that's far more questionable than gravity's existence.

Don't they already mass produce prosthetic limbs?
