It appears as though you don't understand a case built on circumstantial evidence.
A case built on circumstantial evidence is comprised of many, many building blocks both large and small. Consciousness of guilt evidence is merely one piece of the entire puzzle the State will put together for that Jury.
The ultimate "proof that she did it" comes through to the Jury bit by bit until finally, the entire puzzle paints a complete picture, in this case of Casey's absolute guilt of murdering Caylee. The State isn't going to exclude anything "just because" they also have all of the other puzzle pieces.
IMO Jury's pick and choose what they believe. If the Sa just throws spaggetti at the wall to create some sort of mountain of maybe's, it won't add up to a conviction. IMO I do not believe there is any jury instruction about any mountain of circumstantial evidence. IMO These people are human and are not going to have the wool pulled over their eyes. IMO The evidence needs to be real. IMO
Maybe + could be+ possible+ hearsay = Maybe + could be+ possible+ hearsay You can add all these things up but they still equal maybe. IMO The SA needs something real. IMO
Many people are convicted on circumstantial evidence, but there is usually a strong motive, a time of death, a place of death, a cause of death. IMO They don't really have anything strong here, and that is why these tapes are so important to them. IMO
