That's kind an argument for not caring about spelling and grammar. We can all tell what Xepp meant. The principle at hand is why linguists say that insisting on rigid grammar and spelling is pointless. Also, language evolves... otherwise we'd be saying thy and thou. Dialects other than the 'prestige dialect' spoken and written by people with the highest access to education are considered perfectly legitimate because all that matters is whether the listener can understand..

It doesn't take much sometimes for a sentence to completely change meaning,l; at best we knew what he meant but struggled through it slightly.
Sure, that's an example where we don't understand the intent of the author.
I thought we were meant to be inclusive now? There's a good chunk of us that literally can't look past a sentence that's like a car crash. It's like an old vinyl record that's got a scratch, our eyes keep jumping back to the horrible spelling and reading it again the same way you'd look at a dismembered corpse at the side of the road, despite not actually wanting to
Inclusiveness for purists!!!
