[Closed] cretins - please read.

since these distinctions are meaningless in spoken language I consider them to be spurious.

About what I'd expect. Punctuation in speech is implied by context and natural pauses. Punctuation and clear correct spelling in written English aids comprehension, particularly where confusion can occur due to the different meanings of words with similar spellings. If confusion is caused by a reader not being clear on the point you are trying to make, then you might as well not try making the point at all.
