I’m not sure I would refer to word selection as an element of grammar. For example, if one were to say “I believe that Catholics are Christians” when one meant to say “I believe that Catholics are people”, the misstep would not be a grammatical one.

I know that you don’t agree with the first sample in the paragraph above, but do you at least buy into the second?
