All those grammar debates get so involved in trying to contextualize this grammar point and that. I always end up arguing something completely unrelated.

Wasn't me, was it?

No, I don't think so!!
I joined in the discussion before realizing that there was a deeper ongoing grammar argument between the two protagonists spreading over a number of differing posts but it was interesting that they trusted & believed the grammar rules over what others had demonstrated as everyday speech patterns.
I learnt my lesson to stay well out.....
