The point of language is to communicate. If they know what you mean, it doesn’t matter whether or not you adhere to some archaic rule of grammar. And as more people acquire English as a second language, it becomes simpler, easier to learn. Can/may. Who/whom. Lay/Lie. Next, you’ll tell me 18th century Americans were wrong for dropping the “u” in colour and honour, when the English had already done so for other French-origin words like terror and horror.
