Those are indeed false, but conspiracy theories are not the sole domain of the right, they occur on the left as well, such as "Trump rigged the 2016/2024 elections" or "the right are preparing for a genocide of minorities, detention facilities are extermination camps".

Not the sole domain but damn if they aren't way better at accepting them overall. Some estimates I've seen are that 70% of republicans believe in the 2020 conspiracy. Is there anything you can point to on the left that is simultaneously so obviously factually wrong yet so completely accepted?

But that is actually a narrowing of viewpoints, if all believe the same. The study cited in the OP claims that the viewpoints on the left (however that is defined) is narrower than on the right. So there must be variety of viewpoints in some regards, even if many may agree on the 2020 conspiracy.
