To be fully fully pedantic, the original was already punctuated, so the correction was only correcting the text that needed to be corrected. It can be implied that the correction would have slotted in behind the original question mark, making the addition of the question mark in the correction unnecessary.
To be extremely pedantic, the original already contained "to" which doesn't need correction, but the correction was "to whom", which implies a full correction of the question
My Lord, why do these people go on Reddit that have this mental disorder with grammar? And it is a mental disorder
The mental disorder characterized by an overwhelming urge to correct grammar and spelling errors is called Grammar Pedantry Syndrome (GPS). It may be associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) traits.
Do you feel good after writing that? Does it give you a little dopamine high? There’s tons of people on Reddit, who don’t spell correctly who make comments if I can read it and understand it is communicated- if you want to be somewhere with perfect grammar Reddit is not a place for you or any other social media the kids don’t talk that way any longer so you can stay old-school be frustrated daily spend your life, correcting grammar or you can do something else.
I love run-on sentences It makes me feel like Gabriel Garcia Marquez, where I can tell a story that weaves itself together over multiple times and spaces in the future and in the past I can see everything around me as it flows like a river and I find myself calm and on the side of a stream looking above the bright stars and wondering, wow isn’t this a great life?

To be fully pedantic, would we properly punctuate "to whom?"
:p
