Improve autocorrect

Some learning from the competition here?
Swift keyboard X has two modes for autocorrection. There's the standard mode which works something like Smart keyboard's for "careful typists" that use suggestions a lot. And then there's the "fast typing" mode which limits autocorrection to +/- 1 longer/shorter words and limits how many typos can be changed..
My problem with smart keyboard pro predictions is that sometimes the autocorrect inserts a wildly different word. This happens especially when the word I'm typing does not exist in the dictionary but something similar does, never mind that the replacement replaces most letters and is much longer!
So could we have "conservative" autocorrect mode where only limited guesses are made?
