Well, a few points. First off, Occam's razor doesn't state that among competing hypotheses, the "simplest one" is true, it states that the one with the fewest unsupported assumptions should be preferred. It emphasizes the importance of simplicity and parsimony when forming explanations or theories, and it is often used to guide scientific inquiry and decision-making.
Secondly, OH, MY GOD. Is that really what they think? They should look at Neil Armstrong's suit in the Smithsonian (Google it for yourself). You are CORRECT; THE BOOTS DO NOT HAVE THE RIBBED LINES UNDERNEATH, and, AND, you can find numerous photos of the woman prepping the suit for display. The boots, indeed, as you say, do not have the lines underneath, on the soles.
Psst. Know why?
Because the astronauts wore OVERSHOES (oversoles, or rubber fittings) on their shoes (basically like snowshoes, except, they were "moon dust" shoes). Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon. NASA engineers were worried that the lunar surface would be "powdery" and deep with dust, so, they made the astronauts wear ribbed sole overshoes to help the astronauts with traction on the moon's surface.
OMG, I had no idea the "muh fake moon landing" fuckwits had seized on this. Too funny. Thanks for leteting me know what they're "thinking".
I hope not, frog.

Nice. Thanks for all this info, fren. Entire thread saved for future reference.
And yeah, saw that meme at least twice, both on the Conspiracies win and other sites.
