Exactly my point. Proficiency in language isn’t that important and pointing out minor mistakes knowing full well you understood what was intended is a combative and pedantic attitude. It serves no purpose other than to elevate yourself and try to make others feel dumber.

The language did its job in portraying information. Not everything needs to be made by an english PHD. Especially not in the world of internet comments.
