Conspiracists do not desire general knowledge about their subjects. They do not desire explanations for seemingly inconsistent evidence. Asking why they don't do the appropriate research presumes that conspiracists want those two things.

The conspiracy theorist only wants a picture of the evidence that makes it look like his theory is true. Or even worse, only a picture of evidence that makes the "official" explanation seem less credible than he says it should be.

It's not hard to learn about the BPC. But to a conspiracist, a white CM on the pad and a silver CM in space is just the kind of "inconsistency" he's looking for to argue that the Apollo photography was faked. It doesn't matter how easy it is to find out about the BPC. The conspiracist doesn't want to find out about it.
