OpenBSD is indeed about correctness, that's computer code, so that's pretty much cut-and-dried. Human language, on the other hand, is not so cut-and-dried. Privilege is the preferred spelling that should be used in OpenBSD, fine. It's not so much that I fail or you or "Fritz" fail, it's that we're

Well, "priviledge", "seperation", "implimentation". Those are all common mispellings used by some OpenBSD developers. Mispellings none the less, which have to be fixed in official documentation, of course.
