The historical mentions the Rambam's makes, treating the plausible 
Midrashim as history without making any qualifications, indicates otherwise.

But specifically on the topic this discussion came from now: Regarding 
the Midrashic reports that Adam and the Avos spoke Ivris/Lashon 
Hakadosh, which I assume you agree the Kuzari accepts as historical fact 
(which of course teaches in its historicity an important thing to 
know)... Is your default position that the Rambam doesn't care whether 
it's historically so?
