You ever have a wonderful childhood memory of a place or maybe a restaurant but when you revisit it it doesn't seem as magical or doesn't taste as good? That doesn't mean someone changed the timeline and your taste buds were altered or that your sense of humor has changed.
You can apply this same logic to the bear thing which most people haven't thought of in years so when someone comes along is like "Y'all tf it used to be spelled with an e not an a
" and everyone starts questioning their memory because they don't actually have a clear and concise memory you end up with this mess.
Even in psychology there's a similar phenomenon where people will hear someone else's story and will actually forget that it did not happen to them and wil end up remembering the story as an event in their own life!
