some people might have to google what "it (does (not) make sense" means.

While I personally doubt Ozpin is the old man there are possible hints and no working counterarguments.

Ozpins statements are the opposite of trustworthy.

Ozpin has been keeping secrets ever since his introduction, him saying the story was around since he was boy does not mean thats actually true at all. Characters can lie or just "tell the truth from a certain perspective". He only asked Pyrrha whether she would believe him if he said that or not. Telling her he is a few tthousand years old demigod would probably stretch what anyone would believe without solid proof and ts not like it actually matters.

Secondly we know nothing about how the maidens exactly got their powers and most importantly whether that power transfer was a one time thing ,meaning whether the old man could not do it again.

There are so many easy logical explanations to explain any potential problems with the Ozpin= old man theory that its just ridiculous  and wrong to say it doesnt make sense. I hope one day people will be a bit more restrictive when saying things dont make sense.

That beeing said I dont believe Ozpin is the old man either, the thing that matters is to consider that theory possible and logical.

I actually believe that there is no old man, that the old man is the fairy tale/made up part of the story. The Maidens power are just a force of nature no one understands, so as the maidens power became legends people made up the story how the maidens got them. Just like most actual Fairy tails have a small part of truth in them, but most of it is just made up. I just cannot believe a person as powerful as the old man could exist based on anyything we knwo about the World of Remnant.
