Fine, but crying and hot messes are dramatics not facts.

There are actual facts in the article and a summary of facts at the bottom. Most humans find a list of facts a bit boring to read so we like to spice up our language and use metaphors and hyperbole.

I thought it was just adding some style/personality to the writing. Rather than saying "We were disappointed by the messy internals."

It hardly felt dramatic.
