Before we can really formulate a sound theory honing in on the specifics of the cryptoterrestrial hypothesis (CTH), it would be wise to consider certain aspects of our own human history from which we can extrapolate.

For example, how did humans rise to the top of the food chain?

What happened in our past that fostered our current, seemingly superior cognitive capabilities?

How did language itself develop into its current form that allows us to understand certain concepts underlying the foundation of the universe?

These questions seem straightforward and have decades, if not centuries, of hard scientific data to support certain dogmatic hypotheses that have stood the test of time. Now enter the UFO and the intelligence behind them into the equation, and these questions are turned on their head.

What if we're not at the top of the food chain?

What if we're not as smart as we think we are?

What if language is an inferior method of communication and our thin slice of anthropomorphic reality, hindered by our reductive senses, filters out more fundamental scientific possibilities?
