Does this indicate that you classify yourself the judge and jury
on whether a UFO is a ET craft or not?

Bearing in mind we have no ET craft to plead guilty to visiting
Earth, where do we start to find the jury? If we were to take
the general public, I sincerely doubt they would agree with you
the 'judge'. If we were to take those with a lower 'standard of
evidence' such as Roy Hale & Co.  then you may get a result, but
this does nothing to prove that ET's are visiting

Earth, only a gathering of the same opinion. The truth is no-one
can say that any UFO is or has been an ET visiting Earth, this
type of belief is opinion unless proof is forthcoming.

Which particular rationality do you use to determine whether a
UFO is an 'intelligently controlled ET spacecraft'?

In fact when can anyone state that a UFO is an ET craft? I'm
aware there is a difference in the standard of evidence required
by each individual to accept that any ET is or has visited
Earth, but what evidence is required? For example, if a
structured intelligentlly controlled flying saucer landed on the
White House lawn, then took off at speed, where is the evidence
that the craft and occupants originated from another planet?
Again, it's down to belief and opinion.
