I don't know about "on purpose," so much as just labeling truthfully.

For what purpose?

They are more educated in general at Costco versus Sam's Club. I imagine Joel Osteen is in heavy rotation on the book table over there.

There is no evidence that the authors of the Bible set out to intentionally fabricate a story.

But there is also no evidence that they didn't fabricate a story.
