Imagine needing proof of something so basic that you could see it just being being online over the past decade, if not decade and a half.

Not everyone is old enough to know the difference. Imagine being 20. What frame of reference do you have?

This is true. Processing things at that age isn't as cogent as an adult. There is a lot of noise that has to be worked out in your 20s from everything you learned as a child.

Sometimes people think they know the obvious answer and they turn out to be wrong. It's good to have clear evidence of what is going on.
