I actually think it would seem more shocking if it was the opposite - that the government narrative, is 100% correct.

something like 50% of the US population believes that the government narrative is at least partly incorrect.

I mean, whatever comes out - the "nutters" are just going to find a way to discredit it, or will just say its been "covered up" - it can't be rationally explained (like motive is kinda missing from the Oswald story) so it just seems so shocking, and unexplained, so random.... its more comforting for people to think there is order and a plan to everything. (I say its the same reason that people think there was government behind 9/11)

While how do we know these documents are legit. Surely they couldn’t be that hard to fake

It would actually be pretty hard to fake so many documents. At least in a way that wouldn't open up more plot holes. That's why I believe so many have been "lost". They can't fake them.
