If you replace "because" with "bcoz", my assumption would be that you're wrong or sloppy about other things. There was a popular book titled "Dress for Success" that was all about appearances ... Appearances aren't just looks anymore and you should be careful how you represent yourself digitally if you want to advance.
EDIT: Rereading that it sounds a bit harsh ... it's perfectly fine to abuse a language when you're communicating with your friends (some friends anyway). As an architect, you've also got to communicate with management. Practice by playing some buzzword bingo, then write coherent and grammatically correct sentences using those words. You may in fact be smarter than this architect, but you have to convince everyone else too. (Actions speak louder than words, but also choose your words carefully).
