Science is an ongoing process of correcting past mistakes, oversights, and miscalculations. We can't account for information we don't have. I am pretty sure there's a lot of information that is absent from the fossil record, as most critters don't fossilize at all, but if we throw out the results of radiometric dating a lot of other sciences don't really make sense.

I remember when I was a boy they told me "nobody knows" how the dinosaurs died out, that there were theories but none were proven ... and then as I got older at some point the consensus became the Chicxulub Asteroid hitting the Earth in the modern-day Yucatan area. This is evidenced by the KT boundary which is pretty uniform in distribution worldwide.

There's a pretty cool doc "Dinosaurs: The Final Day" with Sir David Attenborough that goes into greater detail. It's one of his lazier ones but the man is getting up there so I can't blame him for filming almost all of it in a museum
How many actual Dinosaur bones do you believe have been 'found'

They don’t display originals - they display casts … of incomplete skeletons (they just conjure the missing bones from their own fantasy).

You've never seen 'real' dinosaur bones in a museum

They are all fabricated.

Hope this helps.
That didn’t help at all - you just restated my point - the bones in museums are not real. The reconstructions are all works of fiction - whether classic tail draggers or more modern giant chickens. Any real giant reptile would be completely different.

Dinosaurs as shown in media are a popular myth to retcon an origin story to birds (you’ve never seen a real bird either).

Hope this helps.
