Do I love being paid to be a stickler for details when I’m hired to edit a story?
Yes.
Yes, I do.

Yours is a profession where it pays to be a stickler. Mine was, too, but a different kind of language editing.

Fortran, C, Javascript and Smalltalk. Back then, an Editor, was the program that knew how those languages needed to be formatted.

I’m trying to remember what I learned to code in high school. Either fortran or cobol … either way, punch cards sucked.

I remember paper tape in high school, and punch cards in college. Paper tape was the worst when you had a typo in the middle. (I didn’t type any better back then than I do now).
