I don't think it's particularly professional to try to decide for everyone
what's an interesting topic and what's a nit. Besides, I would think that the
mechanical details of writing would be of interest to -- well, writers.
If a topic doesn't interest you, don't read it. But don't insult people whose
interests are different than yours.
