And if yes, then please tell me how that is not sending someone to hell over a technicality.

It is God's perogative. I still say we must seek Biblical accuracy. The heart of every individual is something you will never know. I can assume how well intentioned any person is, but only God knows their heart. 2 questions.
1. Do you believe that Christians who have served God for a period of time have seen Jesus name baptism in scripture and a Holy Spirit baptism? I am not meaning do they agree with it only do you think they have seen it scripture.
2. If truth has been revealed in any way, but a person dismisses the idea for whatever reason could that not take it from being a technicality to being disobedient?
I have always felt that you believe Jesus name baptism is the correct way of baptism, and you have found this truth. Yet, you feel like others are not as capable as you in discerning this. Jason, do you have a OP heritage? If not then how come you where able to come to discerning this to be the Biblically correct way. I want to be a compassionate person, but I don't want compassion to become permission that it is ok not to follow truth.

Whereas the examples I mentioned (a person baptized in titles and a woman who trims 1/8th an inch of her hair) are repentant sinners who trust in Christ for their salvation, who live faithful, godly Christian lives, who may even have met their deaths by martyrdom, but someone baptized them by quoting the words of Jesus in Matthew 28:19. We can even take it a step further and say they are trinitarian pentecostals who spoke in tongues. Yet in your view, they are still lost, because the one who baptized them didn't say "Jesus" while they were in the water

There is no precedent in scripture. God will be the judge. You make it sound like if God doesn't save these people then He is unfair when He lone knows any of their hearts.
