No, thank you, request respectfully denied.
The "sic" tells the reader that something immediately preceding it is illiterate or untrue: I would never want my readers to think I agreed with anyone else's falsehoods, grammatical errors, trite tropes or illiterate animadversions.
In 1981, I wrote an article as editor of the Appalachian Observer in East Tennessee in which I "sic"'d a Tennessee Supreme Court decision three times in one paragraph. I am a stickler for correctly using that typographical symbol. It's part of my DNA. Got the idea from reading William F. Buckley, Jr.
