Re: Gmail plug-in that warns you when you write emails

Like any tool, the usefulness and worthiness of the extension depends on
the use case and more importantly on the user.
I do however have reserves regarding blanket statements and the ability
of simplistic rules [1] to gauge the accuracy of one's thought to word
expression.
Moreover the tone and language of email content depends on the
recipients, something not catered for by the extension.

I tried the extension, with the following text:
“This is just the thing I needed.” - “just” was highlighted and
unnecessarily so.

I also tried with the text you quoted:
> This would make it easier for people to understand the nature of the
group ­ for potential members considering to join, for existing members
as a reminder of expectations and for 3rd parties with which the group
may interact with at a certain point.

Nothing was highlighted. Did I miss anything?
