You know, while I share your opinion on this guy and his theory, in the end if you are among the people who thinks it's not wrong to keep a story filled with mysteries like Umineko open to any kind of interpretation without writing a clear solution, you can't really complain that people like him pops up and give their own messed up interpretation.

Umineko might even become to be completely misinterpreted by the majority of its readers, supposing it isn't already, but Ryuukishi won't have any reason to complain about that, it's just what he himself created with his own hands. And if you think he did it right, you won't have any either.

People like Knownomore exist everywhere, you'll always find some guy who thinks he's smarter than everyone else and interprets a story in ways that completely defy the most simple and straightforward interpretation. And people like him are usually not just content with their finding, they need to proselityze, probably because replacing a truth with their own is their main objective and they seek consensus, which in turn create more proselityzing people looking for consensus. In my personal view, they are comparable to cancer, no offense. There's been a lot of them revolving around "Final Fantasy VII", "Final Fantasy VIII" and even more about "Evangelion". It's usually wherever the story isn't clear enough that these people flocks to. Just like bacteria multiply wherever the immunitary defenses are weak.
A story that is willingly leaving holes and wide margin of interpretations is inviting cancer and rot to fest upon itself. That's only to be expected.
