It's an interesting observation & not an information gathering technique I was aware of.
The need to correct everyone & everything is a trait of autists.
I've let a lot of this need go by adopting the mantra "take nothing personally". I care a lot less about what people think & say about me now. The desire for correctness is still there, it's just not so acute. I can catch myself before I hit send & sometimes before I open my mouth.
