Maybe an analogy would help clear this whole thread up. Let's say you wake up tomorrow and you see headlines of scientists discovering a meteor that will hit earth in the next 48 hours. Then a couple of days later you read a meteor hit earth causing X deaths and Y billions of dollars in damages. Then you go to the comment section and read "There is absolutely no way anyone could have possibly seen this coming." So then you're thinking to yourself does this comment seem a bit weird or am I just dumb for missing something. So you ask "could this have been prevented somehow" (subtext you don't really see anything obvious) but then you get confirmation it could not have been prevented so now you're just like "wait then wtf was the original comment saying".

And that is how I feel right now lmao.
