The TV series entirely left out the reported recordings of BD leaders pouring accelerants inside the compound before the fire broke out. Were those recordings too unclear to justify including them in the series? Seems like a massive plot point.

Also, in the story the SAC flip flopped on tactics pretty casually—seeming to go back and fourth between negotiation and show of force. Was it really that dramatic or was it more nuanced than that?

Thanks!
