How to square that with my general encouragement of "attention to detail" is left as an exercise for the critic.
This is a random thing to discover two some-odd months later, but I'm absolutely in this same boat. My typos are rarely, if ever, a matter of not knowing the correct usage but just typing faster than I can handle. I tend to combine words, I'll occassionally type one word that is similar to another word, I'll transpose laters, etc. I assumed that I was either developing adult on-set dyslexia or early on-set Alzheimer's. While I'm afflicted much worse than Quik, I'm glad to know that someone I consider automatic feels they miss some extra points now and then.
