"Or the person is referring to a different item and I'm talking out my ass"

There is every chance I am suffering from the same problem. So understand everything you are saying.

I guess in short I have a problem if there are mechanisms in the game that someone could use to ruin someones playing experience by making it abnormally short. I believe wither can fall into this category as well, especially in the case of the orc that lived just over 200 hrs ... And I cant be bothered looking it up again. But then again here maybe they ate 500 withers so in this case I also have an issue with a talking bottom.
