People be like “we don’t know if that exact quote is how it happened”. Duh! We don’t know if anything of that story even happened we don’t even know if the tweeter is a human or a cat.

However it makes no sense to assume part of the story to be true and a different part not. You either for a discussion assume it to be true or not.

For other discussion not about the situation it may make sense to only assume part of the story. But this is rarely the case.
