What is the myth on it?
The myth is that bitcoin can only do 7 tps
I thought that we all know that this is true
It's false and the blockchain proves it wrong on a daily basis
That was one of the subjects of the block size war
It was a significant talking point, but that doesn't make it true. Bitcoin occasionally exceeded 7 tps even back then, and it does so pretty much daily now that segwit increased the blocksize

So, if now there would be posts talking about 12 tps, everything becomes fine? What's the difference?

If they merely started saying bitcoin can only do 12 tps, then I would have to point out that 12 tps is also not the maximum -- bitcoin also occasionally does more than 12 tps
