Next thing is that if the story should be readable, you usually must time to time simplify, change something so people who do not know the context and have not been there can get in from few sentences. And some details you can just forget over the years. For me, it does not mean that such stories are fiction. But if you insist on 100% truthfulness of all stories, I guess some 90 % of people who shared anything should stop writing or move to Fiction section. This kind of story purism kills discussion in every forum. Everyone will think twice before sharing anything and we miss out on a lot of experiences which would be normally shared.
