It's a great excuse for naps though
The idea that "Inuit" have a single language is evidently the first issue, but the idea behind the myth seemingly came from an 1800s anthropological study that mentioned four separate words. Many of the languages apparently have agglutinative qualities (like German, where you can just moosh more things on the end of a word to make a new one) as well as their cultures having a lot to do with snow (and thus likely having more jargon around it) leading to people running with ever-increasing numbers of words for snow that these "rudimentary" people had for "such a simple concept".

If a woman committed murder, arson, or theft from a church, she was to be set adrift in a boat with one paddle and a container of gruel. This left the judgment up to God and avoided violating the proscription against killing a woman
It's not my fault if she dies out on the boat, that's God's will

The article also mentions another experiment done about 20 years ago with swimmers and the same body heat measurements, with results showing that heat loss was correlated with area exposed. It's a poppish article but the background behind the myth was the big TIL for me
