Farther is the correct word, and has been confused with further for so long (over a hundred years), that they both mean exactly the same thing nowadays, so not sure why people are taking issues with it.

Unless I'm missing something?

I don't see any comments of people taking issue with it. But words do mean things, and some people like to speak with precision.

Words apparently don't mean things anymore, Merriam Webster added a new definition for "literally" this year

They also added a new definition for "very" to mean something other than, "factually", or, "verifiably".
