It does and you can safely ignore us.
Just two pendants nitpicking people’s spelling on the internet.

!corsicanguppy appeared to imply your spelling of “till” to be incorrect and that the “correct” spelling is “'til”. I pointed them to a dictionary describing the word with the spelling you used and the meaning you intended.
Both comments are inconsequential to your point, and to anything, really.!<

till

The point is not the difference between a fake memory and a real one (let’s grant for now that they are undistinguishable) but the fact that positive experiences are worth a lot more than just the memories they leave you with.

I may not know the difference between a memory of an event that I experienced and a memory of an event I didn’t experience. Looking back on the past, they’re the same.
But each moment of pleasure that I only remember, without having experienced it, was essentially stolen from me. Pleasure is a state of consciousness and only exists in the present.

You don’t need to correct something everyone already knows is an exaggeration (and I agree it doesn’t seem very socially aware to do so) but this is a political discussion on the internet, so

1. Everyone does not know the original figure is an exaggeration, especially by how much
2. Providing the actual information ads value to the conversation and in this context this is more important than whether the commenter comes off as smarmy or socially inept

What if they said “Hey I know you’re being hyperbolic, but for anyone who’s interested, here’s the number estimated by experts…”?
The only difference here is tone.
 

I’m not sure why they only shared numbers for minke whales, as these don’t seem to be hunted anymore in Iceland in contrast to fin whales, whom the article was about.

Global fin whale population was estimated in 2018 by IUCN to have been around 100000.

Yes, correcting hyperbole with relevant information is bad, actually.
