Isn’t this a bit short sighted? So if someone has a wide vocabulary and uses proper grammar, you mistrust them by default?

Not necessarily but it carries less weight than pre-LLMS. Obviously it's just a heuristic and not the whole story and telltale AI signs are not purely about good spelling and grammar. But I just appreciate some natural, human texture in my correspondence these days.
a vocabulary of certain width raises a question "does this creature understand the words it is using?". So yeah I mistrust them more

I don't trust anyone who doesn't use swear words, does that count?

Yes, people, in general, do.
