Would it not be more gramatically correct to say "The purpose of punctuation is...".
It is not required to state a degree on an emotion. You are either annoyed or not annoyed.
Enough of this for now, but perhaps a parting shot. I always believed the christian name John was spelt as I have just written. What is the derivative of "Jon"?
