Everybody in Long Island knows about Fire Island.
It's just not an obscure thing.

Most people on Long Island don't know Fire Island exists is false.
Most people on Long Island absolutely know Fire Island exists.

The answer to that is no.
Continent has a definition.
That's not how this language works.
