The simplest explanation is that the increased rate is caused by a change in how the diagnosis is made. If it were due to environmental conditions, genetics, diet, or other exposure, the pattern would have been identified by now.

But you can’t identify patterns when the naming convention changes. That makes all the old data and the trends moot.
