I feel validated. I hate brands that mess around with spelling and syntax. I don’t even have a particularly strong grasp on grammar but it bugs me when people intentionally get it wrong in some awful grasping attempt to look down with the kids. Examples in the UK include Phones4U that I refuse to buy from on principle and a shopping centre chain called Intu which ruined the original branding of our local centre when they took it over.

Intu is vile, everything they touch turns completely soulless. They took over the MetroCentre and removed all the plants and fountains and turned it into a clone if every other drab shopping center.

You're inferring intent. It has to do with trademarks and product packaging regulations, nothing more.
