Well, like with all ~~religions~~ speculative fields with zero evidence back it, I'll consider it further when they present some empirically testable claims. Right now, it rests on the same level as "The rock-god Unk-Amun who lies in backyard created the universe via timetravel, which can be shown by the number of atoms in Unk-Amun".
Or possibly "The number of peas on my dinnerplate shows the level of my household's Runath". What is Runath? Well, it's obviously the thing that's measured by the number of peas on my dinnerplate.
That does not speak in it's favor.
If you want to be that guy who dismisses the most well respected theory from a field you know nothing about, then okay. Just know that this makes you sound very stupid.
It's an untestable "theory" that has no predictive power and explains nothing. It could be entirely true or entirely false and it would make no difference. It's literally useless.
This is false, it makes a number of concrete predictions and the theory is mathematically precise.

I mean, he doesn't demand worship, but you will get an extra burger during grilling if you say a prayer.
🙌 O' mighty Unk-Amun, may you forever bestow double burgers alongside our Runath. 🙌
