Has anyone else noticed this becoming rife on MN, and can we please have a public awareness campaign?

About four or five times a day I am seeing people using "strikethrough" on a phrase which should be in parentheses Confused

As in, "My DD aged four likes the red ones..."
"A similar thing happens in my line of work I work in a supermarket and I've always found..."

It's completely bizarre, and makes my fists clench!

Surely (it being mn) it should read "I had a couple of glasses bottles of wine" and it's grammatically correct. Not to mention factual. Grin
