    Are you for real? If 95% of the population decided that they really liked a certain new spelling or pronunciation of a word, are they not allowed to use it because a bunch of dead people from the previous century wouldn’t approve? The point of language is to understand each other, not to be eternally unchanging. And to be honest english could really use a spelling reform.
