You are right, we do have much more to worry about. I will make sure to point that out when someone makes an obvious thread that I feel should be obvious. Sure, it is only a second, but it could make a difference. I didn't pay much attention to the exact wording until I noticed the different wording with the pro rule.
What if everyone commented about something on this board they thought was/is silly?
