I'm not arguing for or against, just saying that there is no path on deciding what the author meant because we don't even know who wrote it and they are long dead anyway. And there is nothing to study in nature because it was all fiction.

Of course, and I did not shit on any beliefs. I only commented on the phrasing that you chose, namely "what the fruit was". Even if you were talking about a short story fan fiction this would be the same situation.

The story had dozens of authors and rewrites. There is no correct answer. Possibly some authors and editors would give you different answers. My take is that there is no correct answer to be found and we can't rely on checking facts of the event.

So pretty much just an extension of GDPR. Sounds good.
