I'd say you have demonstrated a necessary condition but not

a sufficient condition for the effect.
The effect works with magnetic bearings and not with non-magnetic
bearings. That is sufficient to establish the effect is
electromagnetic. Further, a back-emf is produced, which confirms
it
is electromagnetic. How can these facts be if the effect is not
electromagnetic in nature. Heat is totally ruled out as a cause.
Your conclusion is based on the premise that there are two mutually
exclusive causes -- heat vs electromagnetism.
You have ruled out thermal expanison, and ruled in electromagnetism
but
that is not the same thing as establishing the effect is *entirely*
electromagnetic since
heating may inform in the electromagnetics.

Again, I say watch the videos:

The effect of the current is to slow down the stainless steel motor.
Further, the magnetic motor performs well at higher rpms. A heat
driven motor would perform worse as rpms increase because it requires
more energy to heat and cool the balls and races per second. The
time to both heat and cool diminishes with higher rpms and both must
happen each cycle for expansion to drive the bearings. Further, there
is evidence of a back emf. Heating will not provide that.
Sure, heating may play an insignificant role. So insignificant it
can't even be observed to increase the spin down time at slow or fast
rpms. Therefore it is necessary to provide an electromagnetic
explanation.
It is also true that I haven't ruled out telekinesis, gravity,
magic, or any number of other things. However, I've done a lot of
playing around, a lot more than on video, and it is my opinion that
all indications are that the effect is electromagnetic for all
practical purposes. I do have a number of additional experiments
coming along soon, but none aimed a thermal expansion testing because
that looks to be a waste of time. Anyone who thinks that is a
reasonable theory to pursue can do so at a fairly nominal cost.
