or maybe it’s more correct and that’s why they do it.

I recall a story in “My uncle, the Netziv” about how someone (maybe the Netziv?) corrected someone (probably the Torah Temima) for the way he addressed a letter. Even though it was not technically correct, it was clear what he meant and it would have gotten there anyways, but the Netziv (if that’s who it was) felt that it is important to do things correctly.

Waiting now for Joseph to respond that it was put in “cheirem”. My response to that is that I don’t think it’s relevant since I don’t think that story is the reason it was put in cheirem.
