I was thinking more of cases where a standard could be used to reject books where the author clearly didn't have a clue, rather than disagreements about grammatical minutiae. Eg, look at posts on MR. I would estimate that at least a quarter of the posters here use "its" and "it's" incorrectly, and one might have thought that MR would attract the type of reader who had an above-average exposure to written material!
