      I’m not going to insist that what you wrote is wrong, that would indeed be pedantic. I’m just saying that a casual read of that sentence indicates something different than intended and I suggested that perhaps a clearer version might be cognitively easier for some folks to read.

      Downvotes obviously disagree so that’s fine. But it certainly wasn’t intended as pedantry.

        I think what people are saying is there is no need to be a grammar Nazi. While we all know you get some secret joy out of it, it is generally in bad taste.
