Great explanation!
Tap for spoiler
I do agree with you regarding drove vs droves, but thatβs something Connections does sometimes. I think they sacrifice accuracy to avoid giving a hint (in this case that itβs more than one). I canβt name other examples off the top of my head, but Iβve definitely noticed it before.I have definitely seen it do things that I didn't agree with mainly because they weren't a part of my dialect before (I can't recall a very good example of that, but one that is kinda similar but not quite was when they used "deli" to mean a place that sells sandwiches: where I live, delis tend to sell the meats that would go on a sandwich, but not the bread...so like ham, salami, that kind of thing), but I don't think I've ever seen an example where the use in their preferred dialect it still required some fudging to get it to work.
