Hear hear!
Years ago I used to work in a n engineering-heavy company with almost all non-native English speakers (including me). The Tech Pubs lady (herself a non- native speaker) had created a great write-up on common traps to avoid.
For me, where to put the word "only" in a sentence is always a bit of a head-scratcher. And I have a tendency to drop the definite and indefinite articles (which don't exist in my first or second languages, and seem redundant with singular/plural forms plus whether the referred-to object is unique in some sense).
On top of that, Americans are far less bothered with correct grammar - an admirable trait according to the all-knowing Mr Nassim Taleb. The pedants only care 😀
