In literature, the term “embellishment” is employed to denote the practice of adding extra, often decorative, details to a fact, narrative, or physical object. It can suggest both the artful enhancement of description—as when historical accounts or artistic depictions receive an extra flourish to elevate their appeal [1, 2]—and the incorporation of ornamental details that contribute to style or design, such as the meticulous grooming of hair [3] or the decorative features on buildings and artifacts [4, 5]. At times, authors emphasize a straightforward recounting by contrasting their narrative with the tendency toward unnecessary embellishment [6, 7, 8], highlighting the delicate balance between truth and the poetic license of exaggeration.
