I'm seeing a lot of instances of the use of "that" where I would expect "than". Is this an American thing, or just a common typo (or autoincorrect)?

@sunflowerinrain it sounds very much like a typo (T and N are adjacent on the us-dvorak layout). It's not a typical usage error here; it's much more common to see "then", which is a near-homophone of "than" in some American pronunciations.
