Oh Damn! So that rules out Cosmology, Astrophysics, most of Geology,
Paleontology, Paleobotany, Archeology ........ ?

I have written:

For the rules researchers:
"... My opinion is that one must also be careful about their
sources, and not to make conclusions about the missing past simply
based on those available non-Chinese sources."

And for the game players:
"... I believe it's ok for the
ordinary players to know only what they are normally in touch with,
as
long as they don't conclude anything in the past based on what seems
to be the only information currently available to them."

So for the quote you have question on, it should better be understood
as:
"... as long as they don't conclude [about] anything in the *missing*
past based on what seems to be the only information currently
available to them."

In other word, one must not conclude about any *missing* thing in the
past based only on information currently available to them (the latter
part would certainly include Cosmology, Astrophysics, most of Geology,
Paleontology, Paleobotany, Archeology, McDonald's burgers, Chinese
wonton, etc., etc.).
