At the farmers’ market this morning, I saw a man wearing a T-shirt proclaiming “Peace, love, and the Oxford comma.” As he was engaged in conversation with another man, I didn’t get to speak with him, but I did like the shirt. The Oxford comma may not be mandatory, but it does, in some circumstances, prevent ambiguities that could otherwise arise.
