「If the curse were to exist, then I would suspect that the memory altering ability of the curse would cause everyone to not acknowledge that blood was not flowing from someone's arm, and fake the impression that blood was in fact flowing from "another's" arm.

This would be very similar to the effect of "magic" scenes in Umineko. You cannot deny that they happened because they are shown to you in the face.

My "human" solution to this is that Misaki Mei speaks in metaphors and that what she means by "memory-altering" properties of the curse is that since the curse has been passed down in legend for so long, everyone has forgotten what the curse in fact really is. It has been distorted beyond belief that the current version of the "curse" is not the same as the original one since nobody knows who or what prepertrated the curse in the first place.」
