For non-native speakers, this has the effect of activating checking for otherwise unexpected error types. Have a look in the user's manual/online help. The actual settings should be under "preferences" or whatever it is called in the new version. I would expect simple letter inversions, classic typos, to be caught whatever the the sensitivity setting. It's worth reporting the problem to the producers. I've worked with them in the past and they are very keen to pick up corrections that are being missed.
