I'm getting so tired of the word myth and how it's used so incorrectly. These may be misconceptions, but they are not myths. In truth, some of these are factually accurate and you're framing them as a misconception to drive a narrative. I can't help but consider that link-bait, even though structured differently, this would be a good article.

First, which of the "myths" are "factually accurate" and in what sense?

Second, I don't find his use of "myth" objectionable, in much the same way I (as a scientist) don't find objectionable the use of "theory" to mean "guess" in non-scientific speech (attempting to impose "guess" as a meaning when discussing scientific theories is anathema). This use of "myth" here is fairly common, at least colloquially in America, as a rhetorical flourish in place of "misconception."
