This is kind of a thematic thing with Ryukishi, as far as I can tell. That *everybody* has skeletons in the closet and suppressed grudges, but people are fundamentally decent despite, or even because of that, and that there is probably a reason such skeletons came to exist. It's not so much questioning the veracity of there having been conflicts over the money, it's questioning the veracity of whether those conflicts dominated every aspect of their interactions to such a degree.
