I hate when people use the wrong their/there/they’re as much as the next guy, but I think that programming a bot to correct that would be a lot more complex.

English isn’t everyone’s first language and it’s not helpful having a smarmy ass bot pop out to grammar nazi you.

People who learn English as an additional language tend not to make mistakes like this with homophones because they learn the language in written and oral form at the same time.

This is the kind of mistake made by someone who learned English by hearing it spoken around them.
