It may be a sign deepseek isn't "only for" Americans. Billions of non-native speakers communicate in "flawed" versions of English. Similar for other languages. Circling back to polish instructions for the picky among the Americans... hmm

If it tickles anyone's subconscious feelings, it would be their internal guiding myth of exceptionalism. With their recent forays into authoritarianism, it's becoming ever harder to paper over the reality.

There’s no exceptionalism. I’m not even an American. I just happened to have a string of English teachers in high school that rejected grammar mistakes in student essays with the same vigor they rejected bad arguments, logical fallacies, and more. It’s a classical style education: the trivium comprises grammar, logic, and rhetoric, therefore that was how the teachers evaluated the student essays.

I despise American exceptionalism myself. This is entirely an issue about the quality of the language, not the nationality of the person behind it.
