It is an historical conclusion, as no one alive at the time mentioned the belief.  If the belief existed, it would have been mentioned.  When JFK was shot, people took notice.

Which is why I made it a literary criticism - I was taking aim at the story, not at any purported historical event. I agree that the Crucifixion and all the fooforah surrounding it never happened. It’s like asking why didn’t Gandalf just have the eagles fly the ring to Mordor.

I don’t think I can explain this any more plainly.
