Watching this only made me realize I know WAY less about history than I even thought. It seems inevitable that no matter the case, the intellectually curious searches for answers, but comes out with more questions than they had begun with. A frustrating realization, yet one that necessarily humbles one in their studies. To have in mind the sole goal of having some core identified question answered, you set yourself up for disappointment, or for self deceipt, and in either case your myopic point of focus allows you to miss many things which are potentially more valuable in the process . I am hungry, so im only thinking about food. That sentence is unrelated, please do not confuse it as part of the greater message here. If it talks like a duck and tastes like a duck, it could be a turkey. But occam's razor teaches us to not rule out the possibility of it just being a simple duck.
