Except that I don't believe that it was a tiny omission - especially when you are trying to correct someone.

Neither is saying "You're welcome to your humble opinion" and continuing with an incorrect example to be honest.
> What you should do is immediately and permanently and irrevocably stop doing it
No can do. I have multiple times fallen "victim" to incorrect examples or claims online - and have multiple times also been "saved" by people posting corrections (even minor ones). If this is something that I can prevent from happening to others, is the ethical thing not to post a correction?
In any case, I did not mean to insult you nor was my post meant to be an aggression to you. I would suggest for the future to take corrections with a more open mind - not everyone is after you.
