If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Spell checkers do not pick up the wrong word if it is spelt correctly, no matter how wrong it is in context.

My dad printed out some posters for a charity event a few years ago. "Free T-Sh!ts" were available After the re-print, we found out that free T-Shirts were available.
