Believe it or not, I actual despair at a lot of grammar pedantry. But grammar puritanism irritates me more. For instance, the notion of the split infinitive being 'a bad thing' really is a bygone era. And beginning sentences with conjunctions is fine. Ending with prepositions is fine - what is a question for?
Obviously, it'd be nice if people wrote a bit better, but there is such a thing as a context, y'know?
Having said that, I'd really appreciate fewer ellipses. Thanks.
