So you're saying, if you declare something to be fake ('fan-fiction'), and then there's evidence ('receipts') that it's true, the evidence becomes 'worthless'?
Hmmm...
Being critical of sources is paramount in historical research 🤷
At least Cowbee has sources 🤷
But you're not being critical if you aren't giving any actual criticisms. You can't just declare stuff you have to back it up.
