The erroneous classification of a piece of media as "lost" when it is merely extant and unavailable on mainstream streaming platforms.
Many people online labelled a game as "lost media" even though it just wasn't available on Steam or Epic. You can just grab it from your local video game retailer. This is what's called the Hoodwinked Effect.

The Downing-Kruger effect is like the Dunning-Kruger effect, but specifically exhibited by people with Down Syndrome. It may be more apparent than usual due to the “stubborn” personality type commonly associated with DS.
My roommate kept nagging me a lot by saying I needed to take NyQuil, even though I actually had pinkeye and it wouldn’t have helped any. I know he thinks he’s caring for me, but he really doesn’t understand what he’s talking about. It’s not his fault though; he has Down Syndrome, so this is just the Downing-Kruger effect in action.
