They're not narratively important. Battler will recognize any inconsistency or detail necessary to uncover the truth when the time comes to magically (no pun intended) realize what happened. For the players the inconsistencies are very important, but Battler quibbling over every inconsistent detail in the presentation of each episode would needlessly bog down the story.

Basically, Battler isn't fighting full-bore because it would be annoying to read through. The inconsistencies are clearly hints to the reader trying to figure it out. Just trust that Battler will note them when the time comes... if they're really that important anyway.
