Well, no....it isn’t! But you go ahead and believe as you wish. You were already wrong, and can’t even admit it. So, great track record.
Did you read the linked article?

I once had a guy behind the counter at Cabela's try to tell me he took a deer with a Glock 10mm at 160 yards. I replied " You mean 60?" He said "No, 160 yards"
I promptly walked away.
Most people are LOUSY at estimating range.
A local store had a flock of ducks mounted across the store from the gun counter. If you asked guys how far away those ducks were the guesses were almost always 40-60 yards.
They were a measured 21 yards.
Also, hunting stories grow in the telling.
A novice hunter who manages to kill a deer at 50 yards with his iron-sighted 94 Winchester .30-30 will tell you that the distance was 200 yards, at least.
I don't see it mentioned in the thread, but Kano Kroil works excellently for creeping underneath lead and breaking it loose.
I should have mentioned, I’ve never used the chore boy. I run a patch with Kroil I and let it soak, then use regular copper brushes. Also, I’ve never had much leading trouble in rifles, this experience is with revolvers. As with everything, YMMV.When you use the Kroil do you patch it in and then let it sit and then follow with the Chore Boy?
