It seems to be a disease at halfbakery that people are obsessed with the word. Methinks it's an attempt at verbal affectation.
The virus seeks out those on the board that use the offending word and bombards their computer with the "P"- word in every imaginable nook and cranny.

2. Consciousness of pedantry (our own and others') is also quite natural and appropriate, just so we can keep things in proportion. |

3. Therefore, I believe that ... Uh-oh, in-coming viru... Aaargh! |
