There seem to be many people in this world who have no idea how to reason logically or how to distinguish between observation and inference. Many of these people simply assert what they want to believe, apparently in the belief that that is what everyone does., This I think is the origin of many of the fantasies about Highland dress, most of which appear to have originated in the 19th and 20th centuries.

As long as one does not take it seriously this is innocent romantic fun.
