@ApostateEnglishman This spelling appears in some dictionaries because it was used in 1646. As far as I can tell it was used only _once_. This misspelling of "loyalty" was probably a typo or mistranslation by the original author. Or, it may be an error introduced in more recent times during scanning/OCR. I haven't seen a photo of the original page so I can't confirm, but I have seen this sort of glitch happen.

Nevertheless, it's bizarre to include such a rare and archaic word in spell-check dictionaries!

How did this happen? I think it may be a consequence of LLMs scraping content from online sources, using what it finds without the intelligence to discern between quality and slop, and negligent humans failing to review machine-generated content before declaring "LGTM, ship it!" Next, that LLM gets scraped by other LLMs, which indiscriminately incorporate the errors into their own AI model training corpus in an ever-worsening "Habsburg AI" feedback loop.

Thus, it seems one person's typo nearly 400 years ago has resurfaced and is contributing to AI Model Collapse.

We plan to move to a new house sometime soonish. We will not want an induction hob. I am not giving up using my Hancock's wok.
