The Romantic movement was not "lying" it was a response, in literature, art and philosophy, to neoclassicism. Simply put it is a an interpretation of facts that puts emphasis on the commonplace and primitive man, a sense of the external, and a prediliction for melancholy.

So, I've never accused Andy of lying. I recognize his fiction. He's taken two "factual" but mostly unrelated story lines and interwoven them to appeal to anyone who has a sense of tradition, family and maybe a little pre-destination thrown in.
