Pedants are often perceived as nuisances. They tend to have exaggerated certainty. This contributes to a pedant over-estimating the importance of a correction which can lead one to publicly declare such despite it's insignificance to the actual content of the discussion. See also: nitpicking.
Asking "Shouldn't it be 'whomever'?" in the Chatterbox seems a more appropriate approach for this particular distraction. Though, it appears that fewer would have been amused by you in that case.
