I attempted to correct a higher up to show off my *amazing knowledge* on the subject matter (aka 5 seconds of googling)

Turns out what the higher up was talking about was actually correct, but was so vaguely known that it took deep diving into the docs to even find. What I was talking about was similar and technically also correct, but not relevant in the situation.

I was still pretty new at this point too. Luckily it was online so I just shamefully deleted my comment, but they probably saw it anyway.

Tough being a newbie trying to impress people! Doesn't help being helplessly awkward as well
