"P.S.  What about the "exports from another universe" hypothesis?  How could we eliminate that possibility, as we must for even your idea of science to contemplate the supernatural?"

We have detected no physical cause: if it were exported from another universe, and we found no trace of a physical transportation.  Then, science does what it always does; assumes that there is no means of physical transportation.  That doesn't rule out another universe, mind you, but it does mean that there was a means of non-physical transportation, so the supernatural as an explanation is present either way.

More simply, we could just pretend that, in this scenario, multiple universes have been mathematically ruled out.

This is not what science does. It only assumes that there is a cause that we have not found yet
