saw a video supposedly about why circuit boards are green, thought "hey why *is* it that soldermask is usually green anyway" and gave it a click
one of the first lines in it states that circuit boards are usually made of phenolic paper
instantly lost all trust for whatever the person in the video was saying because how do you do *any* amount of research into circuit boards and think that phenolic paper is a current thing in common use??

@LexYeen it seems like a really basic thing to overlook unless all your reference material is textbooks from the 80s

@Felthry That's the pattern, yeah. Broadly good info, but some details tend to fall through the cracks.
@Felthry The algorithm suggested the same video to me not long ago, and I'm familiar with several of his other channels. He's made similar mistakes on other topics before.
