It's an absolute pain in the ass. When you press backspace once, the underline for autocorrect extends to the space before the word, then when you press it again it deletes the space, merging it with the word before. It will keep doing this over and over if you keep pressing backspace. You then have to go through and position the cursor just so in the middle of the word to add the spaces back - or, if you don't notice it, you submit the comment and then have to edit it, which marks your comment and makes it dirty (lol, one thing I loved about reddit was the 3 minute leeway for edits).
I still fail to see that this is an issue. I use the backspace key only when I make a mistake. You seem to hang up the whole user experience of an app off it. Just make less mistakes that require you to use backspace.
I make little typos all the time, and often go back and edit things to change the shape of my comment. The backspace thing is a little thing, but it's persistent and frequently annoying.
Also *fewer :p
