You are correct in that the ramp theory was solely based upon the lack of evidence for any other method.
However the early egptologists failed to or were unqualified to consider that a ramp or ramp system would be a far greater construction project than the pyramid itself. Six million tons becomes twelve million tons, one block every 45 seconds becomes one block every 23 seconds, or whatever. Just making a big mystery an even bigger mystery.
