the Aliens may know much more about the real fabric of reality and our human history & destiny. It may not be pretty! Maybe the truth is so devastating that it’s better not to reveal it!
There is a fifth too, that is the idea of a breakaway civilisation that lives somehow among us here on Earth.

Operating on a different frequency. With the ability to manifest in our dimension. The IDH is the only rational explanation.
They ain’t from Alpha Centauri...

My take is that the "authorities" (ahem) will gain nothing by disclosing what they know, and may lose a significant amount of influence over their citizens by doing so.
I am not convinced by the tales of "captured technology", much less that we are able to make something like that function reliably for human use.
I think the bulk of what governments may "know" is data: radar returns, gun camera footage, and so forth. There may be a few artifacts -- metal junk like the spew from the Ubatuba incident in 1957.
What it adds up to is this-- what any government could state is "yes, we're encountering something unknown that can travel at will in our airspace, our oceans, and space itself ... and no, we're not able to stop them from doing whatever they like, which may include kidnapping our people. The ugly truth is that we now know we are no longer the top of the food chain on Earth."
That kind of admission would be a complete "lose" for any government. Thus, I suspect any 'disclosure' will be some watered-down psychological exercise that the authorities will attempt to exploit to gain even more power over their own citizens.
Cheers
