I was rather expecting Mehitabel to offer to teach him to read.
Perhaps that will be in the next book. Mildmay is obviously highly intelligent but he does have difficulty with learning to read. Maybe he's the equivalent of dyslexic?
Mind you, I think his refusal to speak grammatically is deliberate.
I think you're dead on here. Very deliberate and rebellious.
