I guess I see the point of language as to communicate things, and if a wrong way of typing something communicates something perfectly, I don't see a point in getting my knickers in a twist about it. There are so many other things that people do wrong that we should worry about!
I'll agree that, being an order of magnitute off, you can pretty much always tell the difference, so yes I can intuite the true meaning...but because i'd rather not wake up on the set of Idiocracy
, I'd rather worry about all the things
Also I don't think the comments being made are negative, just a desire to follow the "accepted" organizational structure of the forum. I think its a fine fare, love to see anything under $200.
