Meta question. Is it better to correct typos and minor, verifiable factual errors (e.g. a date being a year off) in a post in the post's comment thread or a PM to the author?
I prefer PMs and do them often for both comments & posts. A minor correction is of no enduring interest and it's better if it didn't take up space publicly. (Can you imagine if every Wikipedia article could only be read as a sequence of diffs? That's what doing minor corrections in public is like.)
