It is not because of people fighting against it. It just that English is damn complicated and not easily to be an expert on it. Written and Spoken English does not have the same discourse style. There are times when I thought I structured it correctly and turns out it not. I am natural-born American and English is my first/second language (ASL is my first). Even English native speakers struggles with it than non-native English user.
