Sure, but in any case you're going to cherry-pick inaccuracies, wouldn't it be fair to balance them with the "remarkably accurate recreations," according to historians[0]? Especially since it's couched as a historical drama, not a documentary.

Should we debate the accuracy of Marvel movies?

I am not sure why you are mentioning historians here. A proper historical view/investigation is way outside of my scope.

My angle is simple: they said it was accurate, and Legasov did so and said that...and in his own words, he negated most of that.

Is Legasov a good guy? I don't know. Was he honest in what he said? I don't know...but he said what he said!
