@ All Yes, indeed, but common use has become the rule in the age of the snowflakes. And if you mention it's a mistake or correct them when you revise a document, you'll be attacked, cursed and offended in all possible ways, because YOU are the one who has prejudice against social-linguistics (one of the greatest disasters of this century).

@All Yes! "Revert back to" really jars!

Mark Robertson Sep 21, 2021:

@All "Revert back to" is incorrect usage and a pleonasm (hat tip to Mário). Revert to = return to (a previous state, practice, topic, etc.).

"While revert means to return to something earlier or to go back, it's often used wrongly in combination. If you're buying the older version of the game, you might say you're "reverting back," which is like saying "go back back."
