you really don't understand planetary formation, stability in orbital mechanics and a bunch of subjects. there's tons of good reasons to suspect the other planets had moons as well; they simply weren't as orbitally stable as ours ended up.
The only thing your (and other person I'm responding to here) argument has going for it is the extraordinarily difficulty of resolving exomoons orbiting exoplanets around our neighborhood.
