I'm afraid, Miss Kat, sweetheart, that I have to jib at your use of the word 'pedant' in the thread-title.

A pedant gives more attention to details of language than is merited.

Getting grammar correct is usually warranted, by contrast.

IMHO (hence the caps), I think my point is, itself, not pedantic.

(I'm doing my bit for the day, you understand).
