Why do we think Dyson spheres exist. It's completely conjecture.

Because we think intelligent alien life has nothing better to do than destroy the natural beauty of star systems in order to power their crypto-coin mining rigs and video game cards. ;-)

Intelligent alien fiat systems require roughly similar size dyson spheres.

Edit to resolve Poe's law ambiguity: this is a parody. Obviously aliens would have lightning network which would require a smaller overall dyson sphere
