Yea, it’s just that pedants deep down believe that good grammar is good writing; they don’t understand the difference. Therefore, they’re going to struggle to recognize good writing, and be incapable of producing it.

It doesn’t take a chef to spot a bad meal.

  No- but since a good “meal” is subjective to the person eating it, one person calling it a bad meal is not a good metric to base your opinion on.
  
  If the meal has seasonings you don’t like, or is missing components you do like (grammar, in this case)- doesn’t make the meal bad. It just means it isn’t for you, and there is nothing wrong with that.

    To me missing grammar is akin to a spoiled component.

    You literally just started your sentence with a conjunction. At the very least practice what you preach.

    “Missing grammar” is usually not an issue unless you’re reading self-published, unedited books.

    And that’s your opinion. See how that works?
