I had the feeling it was more a "putzfimmel" (my dictionary says thats
translated to "mania for cleanliness" but that sounds idiotic so i kept the
german). Because of that i did not take the complaints serious and felt
bullied, that is bullied with something apparently irrelevant.
I now after having heard it hundread times from various people know its more
than that. And causes real problems for people trying to read what i wrote.

Looking at the above i think i agree people with low skill level will not
be able to read it easily.

interpretable as a joke! ;)
