it’s not a mistake because it’s not a real rule
This isn’t an example of how modern English is going to the dogs. Less has been used this way for well over a thousand years—nearly as long as there’s been a written English language. But for more than 200 years almost every usage writer and English teacher has declared such use to be wrong. The received rule seems to have originated with the critic Robert Baker, who expressed it not as a law but as a matter of personal preference. Somewhere along the way—it’s not clear how—his preference was generalized and elevated to an absolute, inviolable rule.
one less thing for you to worry about
pick a quote that you know by heart
so step 1 is actually “learn a long, obscure quote by heart” because obviously it can’t be a common quote or it completely breaks the method, and the only quotes you’re likely to know are common
you’re right this is so easy
you’re still confusing the example with what it exemplifies.
In most other quotes, the only capitalization occurs once at the start, so it doesn’t add any meaningful entropy.
At this rate it’s rather clear that you’re unable to parse simple sentences,
somebody’s a little spicy over the fact that they gave terrible advice :(
