If you think about it many of the unsolved cases are like a catbox too, right? So Michael Jackson’s case is kinda like the Rokkenjima massacres. There are the forgeries (the neverland movie), the theories, and probably a golden witch somewhere out there holding the key to the truth…

Which reminds me. Whenever a cold case suddenly gets resolved, somehow it always turns out than the truth is so much more mundane than the narratives surrounding the central event. Likewise, learning the plain facts is narratively much lesser than arriving at the truth yourself…
Probably the reason it was much wiser to never open the diary… if you were a descendant of Ushiromiyas, you are probably better off not reducing them to their final moments in life.

I'm wondering if we can apply Umineko-style analysis to other domains.
To describe Umineko roughly, it's a novel about a cold case and the interpretations it invites. That's one valid way of looking at it. Some episodes are in a sense the "interpretations", in a way, of what could've happened.
Similarly, there's competing narratives for cold cases in real life as well. Take Jonbenet Ramsey for instance, there's "Burke did it", "Patty did it", "The dad did it"… People will describe those in quite elaborate detail. The fact that we don't have access to more information, what is described as a "catbox" in the novel, is what gives life to these theories.
But cold cases aren't the only domain where narratives compete, in fact they don't have to happen in a closed catbox at all. I see this a lot in politics and even just between any two sides contesting anything. Each of them has their own "truth".
I often see that, in fact, neither of them lies entirely. It is actually easier to make your case using facts. However the way they are interpreted can vary wildly!
You can apply witch "magic" here too.
Bernkastel is about seeing without love and getting to the bone of the facts.
Lambdadelta is about devoting oneself to a certain idea.
Though, I'm not sure I remember who's about "seeing with love", I'm sure pure fact analysis isn't enough here still and you need to understand motivations to get the full picture.
