Chosid, some words change their meaning if not pronounced correctly, ידמו changes its meaning without a dagesh in the dalet, meaning similar and with a dagesh, silent. כי לא כלו if cholu is pronounced with the stress in the beginning the meaning is the opposite. Your benevolence has not began whereas at the end, did not finish. So do not dismiss dikduk outright because of the maskilim who only cared about it.
