Many people, if you challenge their “ID”, you have to remember that they are not thoughtful nature detectives who are trying to get to subspecies.
They have some role in life (father, wife, etc.), and a fragile ego, and they cling to this idea of being the authority or “the smart one” when their kids ask them a question
So when you helpfully share ID resources, in their mind, you are attacking their identity
So you are running into “identity defence” or “ego defence” that has nothing to do with actual nature ID
“Are you calling me stupid?! Are you saying I’m wrong?!”
If you work at a park or a zoo, and you can hear adults “educating” their kids or their friends about nature, it will hurt your brain
