This is either extended kidding about a typo, or everybody missed it. I was going to let it go.

Subtly == adverb for how you do something.

Subtlety == noun for an attitude that you can swear yourself to.

Now that we've cleared away the important issues, back to saving the world.

Oh for heaven's sake, I'm an idiot. Thank you for clearing that up. Apologies to the others for not picking up on it.

Actually, I hate to break the flow with that quibbling; if communication was accomplished, despite a typo, then picking on it is just 'nyah, I'm smart'. I struggle every day with the desire to save "whom", but I can see the battle is lost, and keep my peace.

I entirely understand why it irks people. A bungled phrase can really disrupt someone's reading flow!
