And how exactly was that determined?

It would betray the whole concept of Umineko.
No comments.

Is there any evidence that they did get one? Ange searches her memory and then convinces herself one might have existed, but somehow no trace remains. She picks the one solution that lets her assume the most sinister reason for the letters to exist.

Okay, then I say the relationship between George and Shannon is a lie, it never happened and was all part of the magic scenes.
Sounds cheap? Yeah, because it is.
Sorry, but you're dissolving into "I can call your theory cheap but you can't call mine cheap because I won't ever accept it can be called cheap." Two can play that game, only it's not particularly interesting and doesn't get anyone closer to the truth.
