No, no I don't think we need to "learn to accept" any of these non-words at all. ¬_¬

I don't know. I kinda like that "ruthful" thing. Besides, according to the etymology of the word (not to be confused with its entymology, of which it has none), he actually does have a point. In Middle English, reuthe was a word for pity or compassion.

On a related note, I actually do linguistic munts all the time. Annoying slips of the tongue, they are.

I have to admit that I did like his specific way of defining "in good conscious" as well.
