I do doubt Anderson's claims, just not for the reasons you list as they are not reasons to doubt him. For example, it could be that JtR was the only Polish Jewish UK Serial killer in history, and if so, Anderson was right despite my doubts. Although I personally don't subscribe to any of the suspect theories, I'm just saying that if Anderson was correct, then it would appear that would indeed be the case.
I doubt Anderson because the fact that different contemporary police officers of high enough rank that one would expect them to be aware of all the evidence all seem to have had their own ideas about who JtR was, and they all suggest different people. It seems to me that the police didn't really have any hard evidence against anyone, and each had their own "gut instinct" as to who it was.
