No, of course I don't wish to challenge you on your turf. Nor on mine.

I just know how people are. Most people master spelling by the time they are ten, and go on to other things. So when you have spelling problems, it makes you look like a dummy.

No matter how smart you are.

Most of the words I work with are rarely in such a young vocabulary.

You'd be surprised how stupid most people seem to me, particularly those who get hung up on trivialities. This makes them look shallow, self-important, uninteresting, and unimaginative. Poor spelling has never killed anyone. Overlooking critical concepts certainly has.
