As to your “you haven’t seen them lately”. How old are you? Time does go back, extending back past your birthdate. My point was, these mistakes were not widely acknowledged if at all in the past. The “corrections” just seemed to wander into the textbooks with little if any acknowledge of the previous error. And my point with this is “artistic license”. If the creationists are not allowed to embellish even when they announce they are, then maybe evolutionists should be forced to admit publically all errors made by science or put sidebars in textbooks explaining that a new explanation has replace a previous one that was in error.
