Why would the burial place of Peter make any difference to one's faith ?

It doesn't, ultimately. What is detrimental is when one uses dubious evidence and logical fallacies to try to "prove" that another is lying about their first purely human leader.

If you don't think this article was posted in order to "prove" that Catholics are misguided or deceitful, ergo their claim to being infallible is wrong, ergo they should all become good little sola scriptura Protestants, then you need to work on your discernment.

Look ... no one knows (but God) where Peter is buried. If you disagree, ... say so.

If not, ... then I think that you'll agree that it is irrelevant to the faith ... unless, by chance, ... you have built (to any extent) your faith upon the shifting sands of Peter's burial place.

Such as that of the "bones" found in Rome? Have you ever gotten a good explanation of the two skulls of Peter?
