isn't a 'theory' .. It's a fact ..

I feel compelled to point out once again that "theory" is not the opposite of "fact". A theory is an explanation, a fact is a datapoint. Too many people try to assume that a theory is some kind of guess. It isn't. It's an explanation.

A theory is stronger if it explains the datapoints.

It is not a datapoint, nor is it the converse of a datapoint.
