I'm not a prescriptivist when it comes to grammar. I think language evolves and changes. I'm not saying it should or should not be that way, I think it's just an observable fact. I can't remember who said it now, but someone made the case that grammar rules are important not for their own sake but in order to promote clarity. I think that's where I'm at.
