Everything about the Argonians is kind of a mess, though. Like there's lore that basically says they're mindless lizards if they don't get socialized into the Hist, but then there are tons of Argonians born outside Blackmarsh who mature into normal sapient beings just fine even without access to the Hist hivemind. There's lore that says they're cold-blooded, but they exist without issue in freezing climates anyways.

They're somehow less clear than the Khajiit, which are nonsense but coherent within their silly framework. Like Argonians pretty much boil down to "the Hist did it, and when the Hist clearly didn't do it they actually did do it somehow," which is the boring kind of nonsense explanation.
