The conflict of knowing historical anachronism when writing fic, but also accepting that it is fantasy and none of that truly matters b/c it’s not set in an actual time nor place.
Anachronism
A thing belonging to a period other than that in which it exists (especially something that is conspicuously old-fashioned)

There is a very funny distracting anachronism in The End of Oak Street that only a very small percentage of the audience will pick up on, and it has absolutely nothing to do with mixing biota from the Triassic, Jurassic, & Cretaceous, or anything to do with the time travel at all.
