4. Tangible climate data has been here for about 200 years.

On this point though, not really. I mean yes, we have data from select areas, but nothing to determine a true world average, not then and not now. Still today, this is ever changing data taken from select points on the globe, even around growing cities with increasing solar radiation from their concrete and reflections. While other spots on the globe are nearly entirely un-monitored.
It's treated more as a census, or a poll, rather than a true scientific process with observation and result of an entire observed subject. How can such a process be accurate when datapoints are so limited within the observed subject? In the end, it comes down to interpretation utilizing ever changing data, in which any outcome can be manifested to suit the desired results.
