"...it is a mute point..."

I've never "heard" of one.

I was in a shop yesterday and mentioned to the clerk that her sign for 'earings' should be 'earrings'.
She shrugged and didn't care.
Since I didn't look in the bin, maybe I just didn't know what was actually being sold.

"earing
the street name for ecstacy; a tablet commonly small. "
Urban Dictionary: earing

Craigslist is an abundant source of such bloopers, as is this one for a four-wheeler bike:

HIS HONDA IS AS GOOD AS NEW. EVERYTHING WORKS PERFECT.ALL BREAKS ARE GOOD, ALL BEARINGS ARE TIGHT, ALL RACKS ARE STRAIGHT, ALL PLASTIC IS GOOD.

MOTOR IS PERFECT, NO LEAKS, NO SMOKE, NO PROBLEMS WHAT SO EVER HAS A WORKING WENCH, ALL TIRES ARE GREAT. THIS BIKE WAS OWNED BY AN OLDER MAN, AND IT GOT WHAT EVER IT NEEDED.

Yes, breaks probably are good, if you are an older man with a working wench!

That is a euphemism, isn't it?

"...and probably madeline's finance"

A Freudian slip to refer to her daughter's SO as her finance?

"priest wanted a donation before he would do last rights"

Without that being done, would the right still exist to tell the priest to go to hell?
