The OED actually defines ‘fact’ as, “A thing known for certain to have occurred or to be true; a datum of experience.” That throws the ball game wide open imho as the meaning of practically every word in the sentence can be debated.

.

Suggest we leave it at that because if a person has experienced something then it has to be true, if only to them. Will save any arguments,
