I have noted in the notes:

I would also like everyone to take note of this:

Duchess64, who claims to be a better writer than many native speakers of English, and routinely pats herself on the back about this fact, has used the patented 'Note' phrase 8 times in 7 posts; the posts range from post #4,338,035 to 4,338,083.

I would not be surprised that, with a tish bit more searching, we would find even more posts by her in between these two points where we are told to 'note' something.

It is certainly peculiar for a person who brags about their English skills to mechanically & robotically repeat the same phrase with such frequency..!

I had initially thought this would be a silly little project where I might have to crack open my Evernote a couple times a day to make an additional entry, but the amount of times that you use this phrase is beyond anything I considered.

I wake up & sit at my desk and think I might have to spend a few minutes tracking down these posts only to find out that you've used this phrase half a dozen times on a single page in the same thread.

It's getting a tish bit ridiculous.

Native speakers in a forum have no troubles avoiding the asinine repetition of the same words & cliches over and over again, often in the exact same post.

This is something that thousands of websites and experts will tell you to avoid -- indeed, there's something wrong with you if you pretend that any qualified person would find your style here to not be problematic, perhaps even creepy in its monochromatic tone.

It's like a broken record.

I am sure you can avoid flagrant errors when you set your mind to it, Duchess, but that a native quality writer does not make.

The spoken or written phrase "note that" is a vocalisation of the thought "my opinion must be heard by everyone and what I say is more important than what others say".
Like an attention-seeking child, no?

The "biased" Kewpie?

What glasses were you wearing when you "saw" that?? 🤔

Out of curiosity, would you on the same basis object to say, Arnold Schwarzenegger being referred to an an "Austrian-American"? After all, Austrians are ethnically German, despite the fact that after 1945 it was politically expedient for them to claim otherwise!
