Your point is valid!

The J-10CE fighter launched a PL-15E beyond-visual-range (BVR) air-to-air missile. The missile's warhead detonated near the Rafale fighter, releasing a massive number of tungsten alloy pellets. These pellets struck the Rafale.

So, it was actually these tungsten alloy pellets that shot down the Rafale, not the J-10CE itself. The J-10CE did not technically shoot down the Rafale—because the Rafale never even saw the J-10CE, and the "Godzilla" pilots had no idea who had taken them down. From their perspective, the J-10CE had not participated in the engagement at all.

I agree with your point!

Your PL-15Es apparently forgot the part where they were supposed to find an aircraft and instead completed their mission by delivering their hardware to Punjab. They travelled deep into Punjab, enrolled themselves in India's defence laboratories and brought their own course material with them: seeker sections, guidance hardware, datalink components, propulsion hardware and even unexploded missiles reported recovered intact. Indians didn't have to spend years spying on China to get a close look at the export PL-15. PAF simply fired the samples across the border. Very considerate of the PAF, really. We didn't even have to buy one. Most countries charge money before delivering technology demonstrators to foreign R&D laboratories.

J-10CE didn't shoot down a Rafale. Period.

One only rafale was down, there is sufficient evidence... Not more than 1 Rafale, rest are useless claims..

Possible others 1 su30 mki and 1 mig29 or Mirage... For three had evidence that were down... Not more than three aircrafts

Keep your mouth shut when you have absolutely zero clue what you're talking about.
