This kinda reminds me of a middle school English teacher I had who insisted on receiving both a rough draft and (a couple days later) a final draft, which had to be different, because there had to be at least some grammar/spelling mistakes in the first draft.

I was a kid who didn't make grammar/spelling mistakes. I'd just write up the paper, insert two or three errors, submit it, and then a couple days later submit the original version.



Hmm, here as well. But then would reorganize the sentences, and add details, where I think the most value of another draft is. Fixing spelling mistakes never entered my mind.
