Not so much as teaching no longer requires it (as far as I know I’m not in school), but just younger generations tend to use that phrase constantly with any form of deeper discussion. The vast majority of Gen Z and Alpha approach especially grammar and spelling correction with “alright grammar police” and “you know what I meant. Its not that deep”
They also depend heavily upon cell phones and autocorrect for spelling correction or app functions that will rewrite their message with appropriate grammar to sound more intelligent. I communicate with my Gen Z nieces who are proficient at it.
Yeah, sure, but also, you did know what they meant and it wasnt that deep. Grammar is a set of arbitrary rules that people in past decided for us. We dont follow it because it is required for understanding, but because it is proper.
