What a tautological and self-voiding statement.
I never said that Higurashi never happened. I simply said that the account Battler read was fictionalized (after all the people in Higurashi who know the truth are either trying to cover it up or are dead). Alternatively, the book Battler read is nothing like what we read/watched (which would explain, why for example, he doesn't wonder why Bernkastel looks like and has the same name as a fictional character).The only part I claimed wasn't noteworthy was Higurashi's use of Japanese era names.

Alternatively, no work called Higurashi exists within the world of Rokkenjima-prime.
