I think you may be missing my point. Let me illustrate with a scenario:
Doctor: I think you have long cancer.
You: That's an extraordinary claim, I want proof.
Doctor: Sorry, you're not my patient. I don't have time to talk.
Do you ignore what he said because he made an extraordinary claim and wouldn't meet some particular burden of proof?
