It's a sliding scale though.

"How did they get a serving cart upstairs with no elevator?" is a detail you shouldn't have to sweat.

"How did the killer go outside but not get wet?" is a detail that probably shouldn't be ignored, although it doesn't necessarily have to be explained as long as there's some reasonableness to it (e.g. "Shannon wasn't seen for several minutes and was Kanon the next time she was, so she had time to dry off and change her clothes even though this wasn't specifically stated in the story").

"How did a particular magical aspect of the plot suddenly get yanked out of nowhere and then actually function?" is a detail that should not just be handwaved.

I submit that a murder was committed in 1996.
This murder was a "copycat" crime inspired by our tales of 1986.
This story is a redacted confession.
