Personally, I don’t think that the “brute force” argument is the best. I think it’s arguing from ignorance.
Again, there are hundreds of articles about the adjacent work camps. Please look at the publications of Zahi Hawass, chief archeologist of Egypt, and Amihai Mazar, a professor of archeology in Jerusalem.
