    You know what? I can totally respect that stance. But I also think it’s important not to miss the forest through the trees on issues when fact checking. For smaller details that don’t effect the larger issue or play by play events it can otherwise distract from the overall importance of the issue.

    Whether that be through unscrupulous individuals who would run away with the small incorrect detail and blow it up more than they should and downplay the whole event because of it, (think Alex Jones types). Or just people who get confused easily by over valuing and conflating series of events
