3) How he fits into elements of what Reich wants to do,
4) Trust that Reich will tactically deploy Funchess based on his strengths
In over a week, I haven't seen one person on here make a compelling case that I'm incorrect on any of those four factors.

You completely left out the most important part....."Funchess actually making the play", which is the part that's not a given based on his previous production. You can assume he fits the role and that they'll scheme to help maximize what he should be able to do to help the team, but he has to make the play, and nothing in his history shows he should get that assumption as a given.
There are plenty of WR's who SHOULD produce but don't, who have the physical skillset to thrive in certain situations, but don't.
For me, he has to prove that before I believe it. I'm not going to blindly believe it just because he signed and will play with Luck and Reich.
