Jumping to conclusions about one's status based on how many trinkets they were buried with

Maybe they've like, already thought about this possibility, before making the determinations that they did? Like it's not just the presence of "stuff" but the kinds of stuff (and a whole range of other factors) which distinguish a high-prestige burial from a sacrificial burial.

Being as, you know, they've thinking about these things for years and years, and you haven't.

Jumping to conclusions about the competence of others (based on a snarky observation or two) isn't very helpful, either.
