    Yeah those are not citations to the point, they are anecdotal at best.

    I’m not a native speaker, my first language is french, and I used to make that mistake, which is why I brought it up. Get over yourself, there’s no way to say “that’s not a mistake they would make”.

    “This error is more disruptive for natives than non natives” doesn’t mean what you think it means. Sure maybe it’s not as frequent, it’s not a basis to assume anything, or to say “I’m a native speaker”.
