    This happens sometimes in my own writing when I’m revising quickly. Of course I don’t have an editor and I’m just commenting on Lemmy and Reddit, but same idea. First I write it using one phrase, then I revise it to another phrase while leaving behind a trace of the removed phrase. The final sentence might check out grammatically but not logically, so a simple grammar checker could miss it.

      Makes you wonder how fast they’re trying to go. I do it too, and I’m not on a deadline. I’m also not a professional, working within my field though.
