I wrote "careless" and "incoherent," not "ungrammatical" or "full of typos." I mean actual failure to communicate because of an apparent lack of interest in communicating effectively.

For me careless often lead to typos, ungrammatical might look incoherent. Failure to communicate is when people do not listen to each other not based on message quality.

Since I misread your message it was your fault for not communicating it clearly.

If you wrote something like this:

  Most seniors I worked with had poor writing skills. They were failing to communicate because of lack interest in effective communication. 
I would be unable to interpret you in different way. You either made you message ambiguous or you are shifting the goalpost.
The immense irony of this comment made this thread worth reading.
