It doesn't matter how well-educated you are - if you can't be bothered to write a coherent sentence and take a couple of seconds to make sure you're using capitalization and punctuation correctly, why should we believe you're going to be careful in other areas of your work? You're allowed to make mistakes, but not caring about how you write would make me worried that you're more likely to be lax in other areas that are even more important.
