The analogy was lexical, not semantic. So you’re absolutely right about the logic of it, but logic has little to do with it. And I’m not one for arguing about language. It’s easiest just to point out what people actually do—every day merging with everyday, for instance, or spelling you’re as your. Hell, a lot of people even spell comfortable as comfterble. Or is it alot?
There are people in every generation who bemoan the “downfall” of language, and yet somehow I feel our languages get better over time, not worse—whatever that might mean.
