Yeah looks like I may be wrong about "make do" being incorrect. Didn't know the spelling was changed in the 40s. I've always seen it written as "due". Seems like an odd word to use though. Wouldn't due make more sense? Like you're able to meet the dues that are required?
Conversely, I've only ever seen "make do" used.
"Make due" would make sense to me in the context where debt is a factor, for example, "make due on rent".
It doesn't make sense when you apply that meaning to how the sentence was written in this article.
Good point on the difference in context. I guess that's how I've seen it used mostly.
I see the correct form as 'make-do', which implies makeshift solutions or workarounds.
make it do the thing it's supposed to do.
