I looked at just two of these, "across" and "immediately", and implemented rules that matched >8000 posts.

        across: { 
            expr: /\b(a)c+ros+\b/gi,
            replacement: "$1cross",
            reason: App.consts.reasons.spelling
        },
        immediate: {
            expr: /\b(i)m+ed[ia]+te?l?(ly)?\b/gi,
            replacement: "$1mmediate$2",
            reason: App.consts.reasons.spelling
        },

It would be a useful exercise to work through the rest of that list.
