Speculation is not fact.

Exactly. It's not fact, so the idea, The Theory is not fact.
So why present it as such?

Well like I said before, to me it was. Of course some of the "dots" I was taught have since been disproven, which is the nature of science. But, I was taught that too.
I think much of that has more to do with the teacher(s) rather than the textbook.
