Curious if there’s any reason this is of particular importance. E.g. is it bad for screen readers?

We as human beings should always strive for the better, to improve, to do the best we can within reasonable bounds.

It's imo not about pettiness, finding errors of others to shame them, or holding others to a bar set too high, but rather, if we don't, we start tumbling towards lesser good things as a society and community and humans.

Not to say that it's not ok do make errors (it is, and it's human), but if we spot one and can easily correct it, we should.

Perhaps not so relevant for a misplaced apostrophe, but language is malleable and if we were always using it 100% correctly it would never evolve.

If this is the case, why not speak AAVE or patoix or Esperanto?

[brobinson]

his, hers, theirs, ours, yours,... it's? It is just egregiously wrong.

[xtian]

It's bad for English readers

[riffic]

bad grammar and it makes my brain melt trying to parse through the error.
