No, that was a late night spelling mistake - unorthodox is what I meant

Which of course is where I admit a mistake, whereas you are claiming a division of sorts between groups spelling y'all in more than one way and I'm noting that it's as "proper" as spelling "practise" in the US. Of course, I'm just enough of a pedant to note that one of the major American dictionaries, the Merriam-Webster, lists "y'all" but not "ya'll."
The irony of all this is that my own family name is pretty much a misspelling (of three degrees over 9 centuries!) of an ancient Irish word. Anglicized, there are around a dozen variants, but only one is considered to be the widely-accepted spelling in English. Nevertheless, you can continue to use your variant spelling. Just accept that I'll continue to call you out for not using the most-common spelling of the contraction.

Yes; he grew beyond "I can ignore the rules and everyone must obey me because I know best."

Because that's clearly Egwene's job, and there wasn't room for two of them in that relationship *NM*

Essentially; maybe he did not so much mature as bow to the absurd.

Was her death not redemptive? Did she not admit Rand was right about the Seals?

Wow, you predicted a plot progression in a predictable and completely worthless series of books.

Y'all, Texan, y'all. Not a badly constructed contraction of "you will". Sheesh.

Numerous sources attest to "ya'll" in both Faulkner and Hemingway.

Yes, and Faulkner in particular was known for his non-orthodox orthography

"Non-orthodox" is a somewhat unorthodox spelling as well; does that invalidate it?

It is not worthless, and that particular progression was not predictable enough for anyone else.
