My point was that it was not necessarily sloppiness but an artistic choice that the director didnt care. I have been a consultant on movies and tv from time to time, and it always frustrated me when I informed directors of anachronisms or factual errors. One famous ex star who was "directing' (and I use the term loosely) would say one day she wanted it to be accurate, but when facts would disturb her "vision" she would then say she knew but didnt care as it was not the point, and it wasnt supposed to be fiction anyway.
