Commentary on Find A Grave can be edited by anyone and is not an official source of information, especially on time of death details. The autopsy in this case is sealed so time of death is not public information.
Each family chose the date for the obit that made the most sense to them at the time, as they've explained in different interviews.
To me, find-a-grave is an open source database. I am going by today’s information in it. As you have said, such databases are edited, once new information emerges.
The traffic in such databases is large. Usually they are a good source of information, although mistakes might happen.
