Should Hollywood be prevented from making stupid people even more stupid, by being prevented from making historically inaccurate films?

Pearl Harbour -where to begin?
U571 - No Americans were involved in the real event, something the families or the veterans protested on its launch.
Braveheart - You can’t have a love affair with someone who is actually only 9yo and living in another country, paint your face with a flag that doesn’t exist yet or where kilts that nobody wore for another 300 years.
The Patriot - insert Nazi war crimes that never happened because otherwise the audience didn’t think the redcoats were bad. (Church full of people burned)
Captain Philips - wasn’t the brave hero but actually messed up and put the lives of his crew in danger.
Titanic - Crewman shooting disorderly passengers didn’t happen. The studio apologies to the family of the man portrayed but didn’t change it.
10000BC. - Wholly mammoths in a desert, building pyramids that wouldn’t exist for another 8,000 years.
Apocalypto - A film about Mayans apparently acting like Aztecs meetings Spaniards they wouldn’t come in to contact with for centuries.

This is something that has always bothered me (and there are many more films that could be added to your list). The filmmakers usually try to cover their ass by saying the film is "based on true events", or something like that, but a lot of people probably still come away thinking they've been given a historically accurate account. One of the mystifying things about it is that the true version of events is often as compelling as the distorted version we're given by Hollywood, so why not give us the real story?
