Nah, but that is how some people view and use it. It doesn't bother me personally if it seems intentional to quicken clarity. It at least makes more sense to me than possession on a name ending in 's', E.G. Bernie Sanders' policies. It breaks down further if the Sanders had a family reunion, what is the Sanderses'? Sanders'? preference for food?

Afaik it's not just how people use it but what has been agreed upon by the respective rulemakers. I was just commenting on whether it's appropriate though, completely agree it's arbitrary and imperfect.

Gotcha and I agree about it being as clear as mud. Also your English is amazing. Like better than most native speakers

Thank you, so is yours but you might not say that if you weren't a native yourself
