Curious, I find it odd that the only reason you pointed it out
is because you agree with me.

It was more like "if I _disagree_ with somebody then I'm often
quite happy to let them keep looking slightly dumb in public (in
my opinion) by appearing to use a word of phrase incorrectly."

Obviously you deem proper word usage important in an anonymous group. Even 
when the gist of the usage is obvious. Compelled to point it out when you 
discover a mistake. This is very common in groups. Common, sheep like people 
who get some kind of a cheap power trip by projecting their superiority over 
others, uninvited, completely irrelevant to the subject. A social curiosity 
indeed. There's something smarmy about it; rat like. It's jut plain icky.
