I still find this to be a rather incredible claim, though. Like, did the Democrats find this person? That seems like a conspiracy theory to me, but it is one I've seen (for instance, the claim that she recovered her memories in 2012 lining up with the time that Romney was polling over Obama)

But unless that's the case I don't understand why its meaningful to point that out exactly. If she came to them and she really believes this then how is the media circus not justified? Again, they're different, but Neil Gorsuch didn't have anyone come forward...

Idk, just seems like trying to imply some wrong doing without directly saying she's lying or a playing politics.

Well remember that she submitted a letter with a request to remain private, with details that differed from later testimony. She DIDN'T "come to them" with the intent of having things turn out this way. Her therapy notes also don't mention anyone by name. She also mentions vacationing in the mid-atlantic which clashes with her lawyer's claim that they needed to delay the hearing because she was afraid of flying. I don't see why it's so crazy to think that something happened and she kept it bottled up for years, and then later when she finally started to seek therapy for it and all the details were hazy she locked in on one name that she remembered. I doubt anyone was telling her "are you really sure this was the guy?", and once things went public she was clearly being coached which is why she took a polygraph in the first place without even knowing who paid for it.

It just doesn't make sense that someone with such a clear, traceable history of having a bad memory, trying to remember details of an event that she can't even pinpoint, and surrounded by people she gave by name that say they don't remember it happening, could be so completely certain that it was Kavanaugh.
