Just so jellyfish

"Scientists Unravel Evolution of Highly Toxic Box Jellyfish" yells the headline as if they've actually figured how and why a floating bag of jelly in the ocean millions and millions of years ago made the huge transformation into, erm, a floating bag of jelly in the ocean now. Closer reading of the article shows they haven't even managed to do anything as impressive as that, instead trickling out a few watery just-so stories.

Their vision may have something to do with the evolution of some extremely unusual mating behaviors in box jellyfish species.

"May have something to do with" counts as science nowadays? This is comedy hour, right? The flamingo's legs may have something to do with running up giant beanstalks but I can't prove it, can I have a grant from the taxpayer for my science as well?
