    It is standard in any grid. It isn't anti-logic for anyone who made it past 5th grade mathematics.
    This guy is indeed being a prick but he is correct in my opinion. X,Y is Horizontal, Vertical.... I dunno i've never once been confused by it. On the other hand, (T,23) would be more confusing for me because I dont really know where T is in the alphabet(numerically speaking) and I immediately know exactly where I need to look with (32,23). Another thing... theres only 26 letters... so after 26... what would you have? A1 B1 A2 B2? that would make it even MORE complicated.
