Aug 16, 2023 at 22:44 comment added Stuart F Tautologies are not grammatically incorrect. Why do you think they are? They might be bad writing in some contexts, but not everything that's bad writing is ungrammatical - repetition, vagueness, mixed metaphors, poor logic, excessive vulgarity, and many other things would be bad writing but not ungrammatical.
