While the article offers an intriguing hypothesis about a catastrophic pole shift as the reason for the end of the last ice age, it lacks the empirical support that the Milankovitch cycles have garnered over years of scientific scrutiny. Geomagnetic data and plate tectonics provide little evidence for such a dramatic shift in the Earth's crust. Meanwhile, the Milankovitch cycles, describing Earth's orbital variations, have been substantiated through a range of proxy data, mathematical models, and astronomical observations. Therefore, until the pole shift theory can produce comparable empirical evidence, the Milankovitch cycles remain the most credible explanation for Earth's climatic variations.
