This is a great point actually. As a manager I had to "let go" of the small stuff and let the person learn on their own. Happy to share my own opinion, but left the decision up to them.

Nothing worse than getting "correction" about trivial things.

Ha. My personality tends towards letting small stuff go, but I work in management consulting, and so I end up having to be horrifically pedantic about spelling, formatting, etc. with my reports...

Luckily the entire organization is like this, but it definitely extracts a moral cost.
