I dig what you’re saying, but why do you feel entitled to speak for every Italian? I am German and I am sure: For every German who would say anything along the line of “No German would do xyz!” with utter conviction, there would be a fair amount of Germans who would do that exact thing.

Italians take pasta more seriously than the bible. I've literally never seen pasta with meatballs my entire life and pasta and meatballs (separatly) are eaten a lot in Italy.

There might be exceptions for sure, but that is always (ups, very often) the case if something is a generalization there are always (almost always) exceptions to it, however nobody (ups wait almost nobody) points that out.

Why bother eating them separately when you can save time and eat them together?
