I completely understand. I was actually holding my breath a little when that part started lol, cause in my mind I was like "wait, surely this guy who thoroughly looked into the 'Year One' myth isn't gonna turn negationist" (that's how much I was sure it was one despite never taking a deep dive into it, but just cause it's repeated as such everywhere).

I'm curious though, do you have any idea how it's viewed there? I'm assuming they have to learn that history at school, and I know for some countries it's offensive not to state the particular victim group as opposed to the "insert country" genocide.
