I think you're missing the point. If you are a felon, there is baggage that comes with it which varies depending on the state. Some felons can no longer vote or legally own a firearm. Some felons find it hard to find a place to rent. Unless of course, you've been pardoned.

I also even stipulated that people could not be made to forget about it. Yet, you then reiterate that after telling me I was incorrect.
