But our relative ignorance is a damn good reason to deny anything beyond the physical world or some kind of greater meaning/purpose to life? Hmmm... Thinking I'm not really seeing how this follows tbh, but feel free to explain this.

The list of things you would have to believe in order to consistently believe in things that haven't been proven NOT to exist is potentially infinite, and some of them are mutually exclusive. Witholding belief that a notion is true until you have good reason to think it is true is just a sanity-saver. Picking just one or a few of those conceivable things to be true with no more evidence that lack of disproof is irrational if you can't show the good reason to think those particualr things are true and not the others. No denial required, assuming you're employing the common connotation of 'deny' as a refusal to believe something there's good reason to believe.
