Yes, exactly right. I think he probably didn’t offer marriage because he couldn’t afford it at the time.

Myrtle, or at least an entity taking the form of Myrtle, is the one who says Amalia needs to forget this part.

Myrtle is the touched girl who speaks in every language but English, which turns out to be useful because she understands Mary’s song.

The first movie takes place in 1884 (the first Enola book is set in 1888). Most people place Holmes and Watson meeting in 1881. Holmes is a young man when he and Watson meet. I’m not sure why Watson isn’t mentioned in the movie. Time constraints, possibly.

“ . . . Doyle estate owns some later-period texts where Holmes shows greater empathy toward his fellow man—and woman.” This should be “allegedly shows more empathy.” Most Sherlockians I know find this lawsuit ludicrous, like most brought by the estate.

Barbies used to have bending knees and sometimes wrists. This doll was $12.99, but was over $200 last I checked. I wish Mattel would make more of them, but she should be able to sit down.
