people's memories are unreliable; it has been repeatedly, conclusively demonstrated that human memory is not a process of recall, but rather a process of reconstruction and association - people will very often "remember" the past in a particular way because they think that's how they should remember the past, or because they have already been exposed to specific narratives of the past which they feel their experiences should conform to. This isn't conscious in most cases - people can wholesale fabricate "memories" of past events, and be totally convinced that those memories are real, without even realizing it. Psychologists have done experiments where they can get people to recount elaborate "memories" of past events that never happened, simply by having a trusted family member suggest to them "hey, remember that time when X happened?" So that's the first, biggest reason; we really can't trust people's memories of the past
