The fact that you you recognize the termination of grammatical parallelism in the final phrase yet inject authorial intentions of style into your analysis thereof to interpret the sentence as yet another example of the moral decay in English orthography indicates to me I need to leave the internet forever.

This is a silly place.

TIL allowing objects after their respective parallel verbs to not follow the same form is considered moral decay of the English language

And yes, the internet is a silly place where we'd rather have an off-topic argument about the subtleties of grammar than wait for an iOS developer to resolve the original question
