People act like this because the people moaning about historical inaccuracies are obnoxious as fuck.

You ever encounter some pseudo-physicist constantly reminding everyone that there's no sound in space and so Star Wars is scientifically inaccurate and shouldn't have been allowed to be made? And the longer they go on, the more you realize they're acting like this because they think that this is how smart people act, even though people who actually understand physics don't really care if movies get the physics right as long as they're good and/or the director's not actually trying to sell the movie as scientifically accurate.

Yeah. That's how people who wangst about historical accuracy come across. They don't come across as people who actually understand history. They come across as pseudo-intellectuals who don't understand movies.

I'm so sorry they get backlash, the poor dears.

Not necessarily true? (Unless you are literally only speaking of people who understand physics rather than just using that as an example.) I know a lot of people who can't watch shows about their fields of study/professions because inaccuracies bother them too much. Like I cannot watch The Good Doctor, despite many people/critics saying it is a great show, because of an early scene that was just so incredibly wrong it threw me completely out of suspension of disbelief. So yeah, a lot of people do care and would prefer accuracy if at all possible.

People who want accuracy exist in every field, but on the internet people complaining about accuracy are almost always speaking of historical accuracy.

This.

I've seen so many scientific inaccuracies in tv series and I don't even have a college degree, yet I've never heard scientists complain half as much as historical nitpickers.

I've never seen someone who doesn't care about inaccuracies painting themselves as superior to who does care either, but TONS of the opposite. And they complain SO MUCH.
