My favourite part of the flowchart is “has someone seen it fall” -> not a meteorite.

Similarly, while people believe (small) meteorites would be hot upon landing, actually they are usually cold, from going relatively slowly through upper cold atmosphere. So if it’s red hot, it’s probably your neighbour’s barbecue they threw over the fence.
