That one is not hard to analyze. Suppose they are 1) more advanced than mankind (smarter, faster, with many unimaginable resources, and 2) they wanted the Planet Earth. Do you really think they couldn't eliminate the human species from this planet? My answer, I'm sure it would be super easy for them... just drop in some terrible disease, or use highly advanced destruction equipment. With infrared equipment, they could find every living body or creature on this planet.
And they've had thousands of years to do this if they wanted... and they haven't.
So maybe they don't want to "live" here... but that doesn't rule out the possibility that we're just entertainment to them.
