Fewer. Not ‘less’.
Yeah that one always tweaks me too. I think it’s a listing battle.
“Fewer” for things that are countable.
I know language changes etc etc but it’s a hill I’m prepared to die on.
I could care fewer about it
It’s kinda funny, the hills people choose. I’m over here, stuck defending the original meaning of literally. Best of luck to you, fellow curmudgeon. :-)
Oh I’ve got your back in that too. Plus: unique and jealous / envious.
