You really think that the government can't keep secrets. They can. They have a TON of shit, that we don't know shit about. Hell, they flew the blackbird for something like 20 years before the public even knew it existed.
They built that huge ****ing whatever it is under the Denver airport in front of hundreds of Contractors, and no one knows shit about anything.
People from area 51 claim they went fishing, had their families picnic, and vacation together, and could not tell you one thing about what the other person's actual job there is. Governments have been honing the craft of secrecy for 100s or even 1000s of years. They are VERY good at it.

That sentence kinda negates its own meaning.
And the Blackbird was declassified the same year it flew its first flight. The president made a public announcement about it the same year. They didn't hide it. But still, it was the source of many UFO reports for sure.
People who work on highly top secret projects, such as what you would find at Groom Lake, shouldn't really know everything about each others jobs. I'm not sure why that should be a surprise. That's just security protocol. It's not evidence of alien conspiracy, just high level security.
