I feel so frustrated by it because I think it really helps.
You guys, you know, the listeners and the audience kind of visualize stuff.
But the frustrating thing is we just the dates keep changing.
And also we keep hearing rumors that the dates are about to change again.
So, I mean, not particularly in this case, but we just know it's a thing.
But I will say when I talk about overlaps, you know, I'm not talking like, you know, 30,000 years.
I'm talking much, much, much less than that.
And then basically, the Neanderthals just slowly just disappear.
There's like this, you know, or if you want to look at the German case, it seems like a crash, but generally speaking, they just disappear.
