Ha! I know that I learn a lot of historical DETAILS from fiction...like, the 2005 Pride and Prejudice movie pissed me off with its historical inaccuracy (a grown woman was going around with her HAIR DOWN!! unmarried man and women meeting alone and their reputations weren't sullied for life!! etc etc), and it's not like I'm a Regency era scholar who can quote names and dates of important events, I've just read enough that was researched enough that I knew those details.

...Tbh, a number of those things are pretty basic to find out *and* span more than one time period. Plus, if you're actually getting into a conversation about history - unless it's a very specific topic, you'll find that kind of detail doesn't help you at all.

...Plus, you do realize that even well researched historical fiction makes a ton of that shit up, right? Like, even the people who write it admit to it? [Hell, if you get down to it, one of the big things I've seen discussed by historical fiction writers is "How to balance history with what people think history should be like".]
