Well, that was an entirely unnecessary and lengthy correction to a mistake that was A) a typo I didn’t notice from using swipe on my phone keyboard, not a misunderstanding on grammar, and B) not an error that rendered my comment confusing or indecipherable requiring your clarification. But thank you for your (air quotes) help. I really hope that you’re a bot, not a person this annoying or one who writes that way.
I’m about 50/50 on grammar errors. They bother me either way, but sometimes I feel the need to correct them and try to explain why.
Today I seem to have worded it in a way that’s rubbed people the wrong way. It has gone better. You win some, you lose some.
And yes I know I sound like an LLM. I used to not be able to communicate my ideas at all (flashback to not being able to string a 500 word essay together at school) but then I got a job working technical support and I had to figure out a way of getting my ideas and explanations across. And this is now how I communicate, for better or worse.
Unfortunately, LLMs learned how to communicate in a not dissimilar way. And so we sound alike.

I like the way you write, FWIW.
Probably the overuse of superfluous grammar that’s throwing people off tbh. You should research the idea of Contextual Language to fix that
When one provides correction for someone is much better to do that than to reply “*whose”
You don’t need to read it if you don’t want to
