Se presenta declarando su disciplina y su límite: «It is only fair to make it clear from the outset that I am a philosopher, not a Ufologist.» «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 6», y encuadra el asunto en el cruce de la ufología con la parapsicología «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 7».
Su armazón es un inventario del campo —seis alternativas a la Hipótesis Extraterrestre, enumeradas y numeradas «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 8»— y su resolución no elige una: «certain aspects of all seven of the hypotheses above — including the Extra-Terrestrial Hypothesis — are in some way true» «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 8». La llave que las une es la tercera: «That UFOs are time machines is the key to the entire enigma of Close Encounters.» «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 9».
De ahí sale la inversión que lo separa de Däniken y de la Hipótesis Extraterrestre corriente: los pilotos «are not ‘aliens.' They are our human Ancestors.» «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 11». Por encima de esa capa física sitúa otra que no lo es: una inteligencia cósmica finita, femenina, de carácter *Trickster*, exterior al programa «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · pp. 13-14».
Es el primer autor de este eje que discute por su nombre a la corriente rival: objeta a Jung por abandonar la línea psicoide «Jorjani — Closer Encounters (2021) · p. 271» y lleva a Jung, a Keel, a Harpur y a Vallée en su bibliografía. Su fila en la tabla del fenómeno no se escribe como si fuera un Däniken más.
