They failed to find any evidence! Anything that didn't fit their expectation was simply dismissed as "details'. They never managed to find any stone draggers or even attestation for the word "ramp". They never found a single instance it was called a "tomb" in ANY of the known writings nor a single instance that there was said to be a body in it.
From this they extrapolate it was a "tomb".
We've seen the arguments and their weaknesses. The only way to reach the conclusion that any were tombs is to start with the assumption. Indeed, the very fact that all Egyptologists believe in tombs is simple proof of it.

The beauty of studying the mastabas is they tell you the ACTUAL titles of the builders. Not one supports Egyptological beliefs.
