Sorry, Florida, but Even Bobbleheads Found Voting Easy

HBO & US NEWS ALSO GOT IT WRONG
Either your ballot card was not inserted properly for voting, or the voting unit was not prepared properly for voting by the film makers. Take another look at the REAL voting unit from 2000:

Notice the single column of the ballot that is exposed through the mask and how that makes the facing pages align to the corresponding holes. Also note the very large black arrows that point from the candidate names to the proper hole to punch. If you're really that confused by how to vote this ballot, I suggest you surrender your driver's license immediately and move into an assisted living facility so that others can help you with the most basic of directions.
Fun, but not the same...
Yes, it's a cute promo tool. But, this is not the same set-up that was used during 2000. The "butterfly ballot" design would only allow punching in one column at a time, you would turn the page to vote the next column. You would not be able to see the whole ballot at the same time, just in case y'all forgot!
Easy?
Am I missing something here? "Sorry, Florida, but Even Bobbleheads Found Voting Easy" doesn't agree with the text of the story, in my book.
