More to the point, though, I don't get why designers outside IKEA are making all this commotion about the font switch. I'm the first to agree that it's a bad idea, but it's not my business. Heck, I wouldn't care if they started using Comic Sans. Of course I make mistakes; but I always point out when other people make them, because I’m an a$$hole.

I certainly know I do in my profession. Thankfully, that's why editors exist (at least one of the reasons). The mistake you mentioned is from the email she sent me, not from the Time article. @R., everybody makes mistakes, even professionals—or do you dare to pretend you never do?
