Oh, and about the data bit that I neglected to mention, if #SimplyPlural was storing data so sensitive that volunteers are not legally allowed to touch it, that means Apparyllis had access to what I imagine was extremely sensitive user data. I can't be the only one who feels iffy about that. Like, password and email hashing are a thing to where I wonder why this data was just sitting unencrypted for several years. Sorry, but that just doesn't sit well for me when the majority of #plurals are mentally-ill.

Question for #systems/ #plurals/ #multiples from a curious singleton:

Is there a polite way to ask who's fronting if I can't tell?

The plural of "dwarf" is often "dwarves," especially quoting Tolkien, but "dwarfs" is preferred and slightly more common. Tolkien's spelling is gaining, however, possibly as the "Lord of the Rings" sense is seen more often with the medical or nonmythological sense now considered offensive.

Spoken, the plural of "roof" rhymes with either "proofs" or, especially in the UK, "hooves." But it's always spelled "roofs." The written plural "rooves," is rare, especially in the past 300 years.

The plural of "hoof" can be "hoofs" or "hooves," with "hooves" now the more common form, but only for the past 50 years.
