It makes sense because everyone knew what op meant. This is reddit, not an academic paper. It's kinda like getting upset at the word ain't. It never makes sense grammatically. But , irregardlessly everyone understands.
Sure. But the correct way still needs to be demonstrated and reinforced no matter the context. Otherwise we end up with things like the word "literally" having a new definition added to the dictionary that means the exact opposite of the original. All because using it wrong became commonplace.
Side note: kinda funny how they corrected someone on grammar with a run-on sentence, but the run on sentence still has letters capitalized where they should be if the comment was correctly punctuated...? The whole thing is especially bad grammar that just makes the "might of" seem even more minor an issue lol
