That's a bit overstated. But mechanical_fish is right that that my own choice of words could have been more tactful. That's why I changed "Syntax correction" to "Syntax tip" in the GP.

I like to deliver my occasional spelling correction comments like this: "Polite spelling correction: word, not werd". Opening the comment with "polite" seems to be a very good way to flag that you're not trying to engage in any power games or whatnot.
