@stroughtonsmith @gruber “Writing Tools aren’t…” is a bit jarring, too. What’s next, Siri telling us “The Lord of the Rings aren’t a good book”? I notice you used “Writing Tools tries…”, and I’m struggling to picture Apple going with “Writing Tools try…” even though that would be consistent with “Writing Tools aren’t…”. Then again, this is the same company that gave us “iPhone is…”/“…on iPhone”. 3 comments
@gruber @stroughtonsmith to me it seems like it’s the name of one thing that happens to have a plural name, just like Pages, Numbers, and Messages (and Broadcasts). Settings is a collection of many settings, but we’d never say “Settings are”. Maybe they should update this text to “Writing Tools have exited” for consistency? 😛 https://mastodon.social/@stroughtonsmith/113381405738433516  |

@whereami @stroughtonsmith I'm OK with that grammatically. Writing Tools are a collection of features, not a singular feature.
