I tried to correct someone's grammar and someone else wrote a multi-paragraph response on why "should of" is an acceptable alternative to "should have".

Best interaction of my life, unironically

The best part is their autocorrect changed it to "should have", so they said something like "should have is just as correct as should have"

Damn, I remember that discussion.

Just curious, what was the main gist of their argument?

Kind of like the more proper "hell of" instead of "hella."
