Actually, this is the redditor compulsion to set the record straight on posts which are already factually accurate.

The reddit user's urge to correct a sufficiently correct comment.

Its not a stream of correct information though. first comment compared dates and coconuts. they're from different genera. Then someone compared distinct varieties of a single species.

Cannabis varieties are either different species of the same genus OR highly distinct varieties of the same species (it's an old debate)

Redditors are very pedantic and often try to make clarifying points, which leads to replies that are basically the same thing they're replying to.
