Some of these could probably be consolidated into a single spelling if we’re going to be pronouncing them the same. English could do with some simplification in some places.
The vocative comma is an interesting one, I wonder if you’re seeing people omit it because so many business correspondence omits it.
For example, I absolutely hate the phrase “Good morning, everyone.” The comma between morning and everyone seems unnecessary. It’s not how anyone would say the phrase out loud. The only pause in the phrase would occur after “everyone”, not before it.
