They aren't "lost", because they were never yours to be "fighting" in the first place..

I’m a grammar loving curmudgeon. Even I check myself more often than not after I realized the kind of classist tones that come through when arguing against lexicon.

This one isn't even real. "Fewer" can only refer to countable things, but "less" can refer to both countable and uncountable things, and has been used that way for hundreds of years. It has never been wrong to say "less."

Language prescriptivism is a useless endeavour, let the language evolve as it wants, I personally don't mind the use of less in this situation
