  This is just so wrong. English dictionaries are descriptive: they describe how the language is being used.
  In 1961 people like you threw a fit that "ain't" was added to Webster's, despite its first known use over 200 years earlier.
  English has no ultimate arbiter of "proper" use; it changes as people use it and dictionaries are a reference for how it is being used, not how it ought to be used.
  Language is a living, changing thing. It doesn't matter how many grammar nazis oppose the changes, if enough people start using a word or phrase in a different way, that becomes the "right" way to use the word/phrase. "Nice" used to mean foolish, "meat" once meant food in general, and in my lifetime "gay" went from "happy" to "homosexual".
  If you can't accept that language changes, you're gonna have a bad time.
- They just called the 5e charactersheet "overwhelming" wuth its, like, 8 numbers on it, and suggested players don't need to know pesky things like "rules", but you're going off on dice?
