The issue is more like, how in the world are there still people getting this wrong when it has to be the most corrected grammar issue? The other thing is its easier for native speakers to figure stuff out, but for learners, natives making mistakes like this is a nightmare. Why can't people just fix their comment instead of trying to defend their mistake?
