In fairness to most people, it's actually brazen to assume one knows with certainty that a giraffe must always have spots, especially as a relatively newborn giraffe.
Without looking it up, do you know for certain that cheetahs always have spots? Robins a red breast? That no kangaroos have spots? It's just best practices to be curious and intellectually humble in the face of unknowns.
You're assuming that most people would think they DON'T always have spots. I feel like it's more likely that people would assume they always do because that's the popular representation of them.
I'm not assuming that people would think they always gave spots. My point is specifically that I'm happy when people wouldn't assume that about something they don't know.
I am as well, but unfortunately that isn't usually the case in my experience.
