The thing that bothers me is that, stupidity or lack thereof aside, Ryukishi did say we weren't getting all the answers, and from a logical standpoint, as stated, we're not getting real-world truths from fictional stories. There's no remaining evidence. How the fuck are we supposed to learn the Truth without invoking magic or a deus ex machina? Sure, you could reveal Battler was still alive, but then you have to explain why he was a complete douchebag and didn't come back to Ange ASAP.
Add on that Ryukishi made all of his characters EXTREMELY sympathetic and likable, to the point that trying to paint any of them as capable of murder makes them seem extremely out of character to the point that you can only accuse Bern of trolling.
So he kind of fucked up and put himself into a corner before he even had a chance to write EP8. He was kind of screwed.
