I've shared stories about my ultra TBM sister before. (Namely when she called me and told me that my wife needed to wear garment approved clothing at our reunion last week so that her husband won't have impure thoughts).
Anyway, when I was down in Utah last week she gave me her obligatory speach about how I need to go back to church. One of her points was that the church may have had issues but they have never hid anything. They were an open book. I saw that her mentioning the word book was a good segway to talking about the rock in the hat "translation".
So I told her how the church lies about the BoM translation. I then proceeded to tell her how it actually happened.
She got all offended and said that JS translation was a sacred thing and shold not be discussed so, lightly. So when I brought up additional points she said it was too sacred to discuss.
So I finally understand now. When church members aND Q15 talk about things to sacred to discuss. They're just using it as a way to not talk about something that was totally crazy to begin with. To TBM'S, crazy means sacred.
Makes things easier I guess.
