I reckon that these memories are pruned by not being recalled strengthening the neurons making it up because they are not as important and take up bandwidth for the more important stuff like surviving as an infant in a physical world filled with your care takers.
>That night my family watched a war movie on the VCR, maybe saving private ryan or something similar, and the helicopter struck me. If there was a helicopter in the movie, then we can confidently exclude Saving Private Ryan.

So while I'm still on the fence about whether you're being meta-ironic or whatever, I am very certain that I will always prefer honest, human written blog posts (including wrong idioms, phrases etc) to slop that was "improved" or downright written in full by an LLM.
But if it was my first time standing on my own, that must be 6-12 months old. If so how can I recognize my parents language so clearly?
Another memory was, There was a plush toy I really wanted, A gorilla holding banana, at a local supermarket called SATY. So I demanded my parents to buy it by speaking fluently.
Later, my parents told me a totally different story. Suddenly, I started shouting "Gori! SATY! Banana!" endlessly. It took them a while to figure out I wanted a plush of Gorilla holding banana sold at SATY.
I do not remember the floor time much at all. I do remember a dog sticker from my crib. I know this because when I was 10, I visited a faraway aunt and asked my dad about the sticker on their bathroom wall. "I have seen this one before! Where did I see it?"

It's kind of fascinating trying to think back of the earliest memories I still (or used to) remember. I'm not "old" at all but still these distant memories are literally from another world (in the sense that my mental model of the world was very different, as well as all the changes it went through)
Wait till most of your life feels "from another world"... I visited places I lived in the past and it feels like a place somebody else lived, who were close to me, but still not "me".
Man... I swear, my first time at Fusion Festival changed me and I'm not sure if it's for the better or worse. The curse of knowledge and experience. (This year I don't feel much about it. The change already happened.)
