Comment (by elb):
Because we despise illiteracy, and if we can make the world just that much
more literate, it's worth our while. Some of the examples you give should
possibly be changed -- for example, "cuz" should likely become "'cause",
which keeps the informal fashion, but in the way a literate person might
write it. However, every correction in that list is there because someone
wanted it put there; the fact that you don't like some of them does not
mean that someone else cannot.
The list is editable for this very reason.
