prettygoodwordgrammatolatry - n., worship of words.
Especially, a concern for the letter rather than the spirit of things. Coined from Greek grammatos, word + English suffix -latry, worship of (or fanatical devotion to), from Greek latreia, service, worship.
Not that anyone around here would be susceptible, nuh uh.
