Language police sirens. Something can affect something else, or can have an effect on something. Otherwise, perfect comment!

Policing the police I suppose. “Effect” can actually be used as a verb, and it means “to bring about a result”. So something could effect something else. It’s still used incorrectly in the original comment, I just wanted to contribute a nitpick I thought you’d appreciate.

Yes! Thank you! But I find it so rare on the internet that “effects” must be a typo like 99% of the time (pulled it out my ass but yeah)
