It’s amazing that people with this much exposure, don’t remember historical verisimilitude was not what he was going for.

My favorite is the clock chiming in Julius Caeser. What difference does that make? If the author of Shakespeare plays had been in Renaissance Italy, he would have heard clocks chiming. A sea coast in Bohemia is an "anamundism", clocks chiming in early imperial Rome is an anachronism.
