That's my understanding, too. It's a fact I was exploiting in a kind of underhanded way for humor. I like the clarity of not splitting infinitives, but I agree that it and a lot of other grammer suggestions don't really matter as long as good communication occurs. Anything more than that will probably be defined by far more specific conventions in whatever professional specialty applies. Thanks for having fun with me on the internet.
Was this supposed to be fun?
Aren't grammar and etymology always fun?
I don’t know. I didn’t read any of it. I was just trying to be encouraging.
Thanks for your support.
