You are judging a field specialist(s) on basically their communication skills.

"Carly Cassella is a Senior Journalist at ScienceAlert"

Or am I?

Also, it's not my fault that people goat all flustered about me simply pointing out that poor phrasing with "do they even proofread?"

Oh, a journalist, then bitch on :D (no /s, after all, random bitching is a fair part of lemmy).

But I think people replied to your og message because of the (mis?)use of the word "contradictory", not because of the bitching as such.
(And Im mostly here bcs I like to understand myself, like what triggered you sceptically & how the same thing played in my mind)
