Agreed. Caster's initial confusion is understandable.
Actually, there's probably no historical figure that gets associated with "Girl Knight" more than Joan of Arc. I myself thought that Saber was Joan of Arc back in Fate/Stay Night until that was clearly ruled out.
And... that reminds me of a minor nitpick I forgot to mention. Don't Servants get up to date info on the modern world that summons them, as well as legendary historical figures (hence why most servants want to hide their real names)? Joan of Arc is one of the most well-known figures of history. I found it a bit surprising that Saber didn't know who Caster was confusing her with.
Granted, Joan of Arc came after King Arthur, but hey, this sort of thing doesn't stop Alexander the Great from being familiar with Grail-caliber historical figures that came after him.
