If anything, it's going to make us go, oh, maybe I don't love that person like I thought I did.

The trial by ordeal was kind of like very well suited for small communities.
There was almost like a an unspoken idea of like whether the person was guilty or not.

So they would intentionally, like subconsciously rig up an ordeal that the person could pass or not, depending on what the community sentiment was.
And then when the person miraculously survived their ordeal that actually wasn't that hard to survive, they all went, phew, God solved it.
