Writers never let the facts get in the way of a good story. If reality doesn't fit the plot, it can be [[Retcon|changed]]. History and myth are the most common targets of this - it's much easier to convince the viewers that a 9th century pope was actually a woman disguised as a man than that the current pope is female.
When this '''Reality Retcon''' is a story premise [[Plausible Deniability]] is generally the aim, but the retcon remains a clear, deliberate, and direct contradiction of generally accepted facts.
