More seriously though, nowadays when people call themselves Epicurean, they mean just the life philosophy stuff, not the physics stuff :D

No, but if you say that you discovered inner peace and fire is cold, I don’t trust that you discovered inner peace.
Why not?
Because you stated 2 things as if they were fact, and I know at least one of them is wrong. It’s okay not to know things, but definitively saying something is true when it’s clearly not true proves that you state unfounded ideas as if they were facts, which can and should undermine people’s trust in the validity of all definitive statements you make.
But all you discovered is that I’m human! if you don’t think you do this then i trust you even less than the avg human
Some humans are more trustworthy than others. Even the difference between “I think fire is cold” and “Fire is cold” is immense. To err is to be human, but to err with complete confidence shows that you’re a little too comfortable with erring.
