I only get chuffed when an author takes liberties with a subject with which I'm quite knowledgeable. And even then, I don't really blame the author for not knowing as much about said subject as I do (or think they need to do more research). I just see it as being unfortunate that the author chose that particular subject to to write around. I actually prefer fictional settings (both geographical and chronological) to be vague enough that I don't have to worry about "(in)accuracy." I'm perfectly content not knowing if something is a "fictional tool" or a "mistake" (when reading fiction, mind you).
