Fun game, though four years after Wordle I think we can move on from naming every browser puzzle game "something-le" :)

Slight spoiler alert: The last event it gave me was Ireland winning the Six Nations grand slam, which has in fact happened multiple times. In the event it didn't matter as the earliest time it happened was later than the next latest event but in another scenario I think it could have resulted in confusion and possibly a false negative. Or is it smart enough to know only to have an event like that where its place is not ambiguous?

"Ireland Wins Six Nations Grand Slam" is such an obscure, hyper-local event which should be a part of localization I guess. I understood every word, but not the whole sentence.

First great to have non US questions. This is how we see many quizzes as too local. Would you have objected to an American Football question?

But Ireland have won the Grand SLam 4 times so could appear in several postions

So not a good question.

As an American not into sports, the only Football question I think would be of such historical significance to match the rest on this list would be "US Holds First Superbowl" or something.
