      Sorry, I wasn’t explaining myself well.

      Just because a story isn’t factually true, doesn’t mean that it has no value, or negative value. There are other types of values which can supersede factual value:

      • aesthetic
      • symbolic
      • ethical
      • didactic

      Truth isn’t always about facts. Sometimes factual statements can be used as a weapon of deceit.
