Did I try to convince you otherwise? I just said your loss, because that's what I honestly think. It's not such a big deal, anyway, since I haven't noticed a trend of non-natives in Russian trying to correct other non-natives, but as two prominent non-natives here it's "good to know" that I'm not allowed to correct you, as I'd not want to transgress upon your ways. I anyway think your Russian is better than mine, so I don't think it'd have come to this unless you were to have been very negligent.
