Yeah exactly. It's the same reason why we go by innocent until proven guilty rather than guilty until proven innocent. There's absolutely no reason to think Saitama kept the stats when he objectively did not keep the memories as far as we currently know. The burden of proof is on whoever's claiming he did keep any stats from his future self to prove it true.You're the one assuming he mantained something while he did not mantain anything else.
Hell, even if you want to stretch it to their bodies fusing so their stats are added up, it still does not work because by that logic, his memories should have added up too, but they didn't.
We're not assuming anything, we're taking context and using the most obvious interpretation: he didn't mantain his memories, his body is from the past timeline, therefore, he has lost everything. Burden proof is on you to show why he mantained his strength and speed but lost everything else
Besides does it really matter? It's not like this will change the story or how he will fare in verses battles. In the story he will inevitably catch up and surpass the future timeline version altogether regardless, and in verses battles he still just stomps or gets stomped 90% of the time either way.
