Some religiousites trot out that stuff as Literally True and 100% Inerrant. Interest accrues from that, for by asserting it is 100% entirely true, demonstrating even a particle of error knocks it all down.
OTOH, if we're drawing a line somewhere in the Bible between fact and fiction, my interest is immediately piqued by what you refer to as trivia since the Bible does state that every bit is suitable for inspiration and correction. Folks that set themselves up as knowing more than God/Jesus does in these matters are going to experience INTENSE scrutiny.
As they should.
