> I'd say the critical question here would be whether these characteristics can also be found on the edible mushroom
That's a non-trivial question to answer because mushrooms from the same species can look very different based on the environmental conditions. But in this case it was giving me identifying characteristics that are not typical for the mushroom in question, but rather are typical for the deadly Galerina, likely because they are frequently mentioned together. (Since, you know, it's important to know what the deadly look alikes are for any given mushroom.)
