9 out of 10 times they knew exactly what the parent commenter was saying. The fact that they go out of their way to correct them is bad enough. The fact that 99 out of 100 times they do in an asshole-ish, holier-than-thou way makes it worse. The fact that reddit surrounds them with upvotes and praise is deplorable. It does nothing to better the community whatsoever.

That's the guise of it. But it doesn't work out that way in the end.
