When everyone has a different opinion on a topic, you can be ABSOLUTELY sure of one thing: they do not KNOW what the answer is.
If you can move to a different, more knowledgeable, set of "everyones", you can see if there is a consensus.
I can tell you a few things for sure:
+ sharp rocks and sticks can poke a hole in the pool, and WILL hurt someone's foot.
+ Intex framed pools can live with some out of level, but will do better, level. 1" from side to side is no problem; it would be hard to set up a pool with 1' of slope side to side.
+ pits and holes don't guarantee a liner puncture, but they make it more likely.
+ sand isn't permanent, but will probably last a season.
If you get the area level within 2", rake it clean of sticks and rocks, fill holes and depressions with sand --- you should be fine for the season. But if you don't do those things, the pool may still work OK.
