The reciprocal is also true, and we can ALSO USE ALL-CAPS to say it, but 
there's no point in having a shouting match about it. No one is saying 
it's perfectly fine and normal; we're saying it doesn't seem to violate 
any rules. I myself started by saying that I'd never seen such a 
construction before. However, if I find that it would be useful to say 
something, I'm going to use it.

For the record, I don't see anything "weird" about it. Unusual, yes, but 
not weird. And not, apparently, ungrammatical.
