The thought hadn’t crossed my mind – but it’s a nice idea. Of course, you have to remember that they probably have full-time professionals looking after the website, and that makes it less onerous to correct errors.

Mind you, it’s also worth noting that the correction includes the observation that they had made a mistake.

Thanks for that.
