Here's why...idkfa,
Thanks for putting thought into your post. VARES is certainly not accurate, clean data. It can be used to identify trends and SHOULD be used to trigger deeper investigation by the three letter alphabet soup government organizations (NIH. CDC, FDA...).
Point #6 is excellent. The Swine Flu vaccination resulted in less than 100 deaths which resulted in the vaccination being pulled from the market. How can the number of deaths from the COVID vaccinations be less than that?
To me it seems that it's not too great of an effort for the government to verify a small, say 100, fatalities to help guide policy. They have the tools and alternative data sources and tools to do #3-#5 above. Why don't they do this?
