If I am an English professor, then I would correct someone on the usage. Since that is not the case, I will keep my mouth shut on other people's use of the English language.
Why should only English professors care? It's not wrong to help people, it's just important not to correct them when you don't know.

I most certainly want to be corrected if I am using a word wrong. Famously (to me at least) Jared corrected me on misusing ignorance (I thought it was the state of ignoring, but it is not, it is older than ignore) which was important so that I use it correctly now. That's how we grow. Letting people continue to sound like idiots just sets them up for failure.

Amen.

Sadly, I have no memory of this.

Perhaps you are ignorant of it.
