Trustless is only a word.
In the end, there is no way to mathematically compute what happens off chain. Therefore, the mathematics of the chain must rely on one or more external entities. Whether the chain enters into some complicated polling/voting/authentication scheme, the bottom line is that the mathematics needs to trust these entities as relaying the state of the off-chain world. Chainlink is overvalued for what it is.

let the linkies lose there money
they don't listen anyway

Not an argument
the chainlink mainnet was the most disappointing thing I ever witnessed
trustless is a real concept, but chainlink ain't it chief, nowhere close
Of course it can't be, but not for the reasons you're saying.
Chainlink is basically just asking the same question to multiple servers and looking for a consensus. This will inevitably introduce some delays before the consensus is reached.
The idea of an oracle is to provide consensus immediately, and that's not physically possible, even with quantum computing.
Your argument is only proving that you do not understand how bitcoin solve the byzantine problem. And by extension you are unable to understand how link will solve the oracle problem.
You can't solve a problem that isn't real
