I see nothing wrong with suggesting that, so long as it is made clear he is discussing one of many theoretical possibilities.
Is he a kook? He does kinda look like one, but so do a lot of legit scientists, so that's not a good measure.

Not a kook. Legit scientist. He has a PhD in theoretical physics, not a theoretical PhD in physics. While he spends a lot of time as a science communicator, he has his bona fides. Yes, it's all just theories and intuition like all nascent science.

He's a heavily published professor of theoretical physics that has been working on string theory, and working as a science communicator, for decades. I have one of his books from the 90s. Globally well-respected smart dude. By comparison, you kind of seem like a kook because you can't search a name before making assumptions about someone based on physicality alone.
