Stalin said something mean to Krupskaya, Lenin got mad at Stalin, Stalin apologized. These things happen between friends. Considering the circumstances of this going on when tensions are high due to Lenin’s illness the whole thing is quite understandable. It is not a big deal.
Its overblown orientalist “Kremlinology” like how China watchers obsess over some party member leaving a speech.
No, there was a falling out. It was because Stalin had been rude to Krupskaya which angered Lenin.
Edit: Getting downvoted for writing down factual event?
