Once they use data as plural, I'm done.
Once they used data as plural, I paid attention.
We've talked about this before, but, I sort of appreciate the attention to the precision of Latin.
But...that's just one datum.

John Derbyshire once had a corner post about his unhappiness with these colonial editors at NR changing his ‘data is’ to ‘data are’. His argument, which I found compelling, is the word was now English and not Latin. In English it’s a mass noun like rice or sand. In Latin it’s plural but if you’re using it as a Latin word than you would italicize it. But nobody italicizes it because it’s an English word.
