>>The next step is to design an experiment capable of proving the hypothesis true or false (proving the null hypothesis false).<< You ignore the NY flies specific example I cited.

New York flies? This is the problem: How do you define evolution? The definition of evolution CHANGES when you ask tough questions to a supporter of evolution. How can there be proof of evolution, if evolution is not precisely defined? How can there be proof of something that is vague and ambiguous and ever-shifting?

The only useful meaning of "evolution" is that non-life spontaneously turned into life.

So do the flies in New York prove something? Well, that depends on what the QUESTION is. Whether the flies prove something depends on what it is you are proposing to prove.

Do flies in New York tell us that life spring from non-life? If "evolution" means that non-life turned into life then what proves that?

And yet we have never even seen a species turn into a different species.

Note that if there are 10 donuts and 10 croissants on the table and I eat all the donuts, that does not mean that the donuts turned into croissants. I now see only croissants, but not a single donut transformed itself into a croissant.
