Default Why GA is Dying

It is very hard to proofread your own writing. You know
what you meant to say and that is what you see. If your
native language is something other than English, you must
read the words on the paper, but native English speakers
only see every half dozen words and the mind fills in the
blanks.

BTW, this is a problem for pilots get their ATC clearance,
you hear what you expect to hear.
