Score 1. The prompt is “job title” and this isn’t a job title.

Score 1. What Kevan said I think by now its more important people match the prompts

I believe you meant “Typist”? This doesn’t even resemble the prompt in its current form.

Tbh, I thought “Typewriter” was a occupation.

And to be more blunt, I thought it was a dual meaning word.

Typewrite is apparently a rare verb for writing the object using a typewriter (machine). That means “typewriter” could hypothetically mean the person using the device instead of the device itself.

As an occupation, though, the term is “typist”, and the remainder of the acronym further reinforces that the final word refers to a device rather than a person.

Score 5. I think people are being ungenerous here.

Score 2. I haven’t heard “Typewriter” used to mean an occupation instead of an object before, but I can see how it might be read as one.

It’s not all that bad, prompt aside. Score 2
