Yep, that’s about the time it seemed to go a little sideways. I think you once explained it to me that they changed some under-the-hood/behind-the-scenes stuff that altered how it all worked, but that accuracy suffered. And I remember responding with something like “then why bother? The whole point of something like auto-correct is accuracy…above speed and all else.”

Auto-correct has no value if all it’s doing is making me sound like a drunken, sub-literate lunatic. I can do all that on my own, without any help”, thankyouverymuch.
