That's not the point. The question is: until what point is that denial relevant? As in: taken seriously. In simple English: at what point do you become a joke! The Club doesn't decide that. The world at large does.
Most of the world does not give a rats ass about the argument. There is probably a tipping point when the revisions get written up in the text books. I think we've already reached that point but they are no going quietly into the night.

It all depends on "being written up in the text books" still being relevant. I posit it is defacto not anymore.
In this 21st century the contents of text books are by definition outdated = irrelevant IRL.
Maybe still interesting to science historians. But only hindering science progress.
