They state: “Science is a process of seeking natural explanations for natural phenomena“. So it’s not a conspiracy, but a policy. That’s all good and well but one should know that going in.

If a god exists and is responsible for creating the whole Universe, or whatever, then that god is a part of Nature and should be available to scrutiny.
In other words, if the Universe is indeed intelligently created, then the creator is itself part of Nature and, unless it placed some blocks to our potential ability to research Nature beyond what was created, we should be able to reliably come to some natural information about that creator.
Furthermore, if that creator is also intent on having us humans acknowledge its existence, then such blocks that it may place would counter this intent. So it's not reasonable to assume that such blocks would be in place for the abrahamic god(s).
As such, and given that none of the current scientific discoveries about the Universe show nor hint at the presence of such a creative force, we have no reason to accept humanity's wishful thinking as minimally accurate.
One, or more, of those wishes may be correct, in the end... but we have no way of knowing it. Until then, let's use what we do know as the firm base where to stand.
Wishful thinking is no base to work upon... unless you wish to work upon preying on the gullible who wish a lot.
