You haven't made a reasonable point as to why the tale was told. It was in fact a "fictional tale" because scholars had access to information that told them otherwaise long before it became common knowldge to the common folk.

What fucking tale? It was the times belief about Earth's form. And even if some scholars might have known the truth, the concensus didn't change based on that. Earth being roundish isn't that obvious as you might think, not to mention the proof about it. Actually as we haven't established any time frame, I don't know to what time you are referring.
And "common folk" had all sorts of beliefs, still has.
