Because the first is Rover's opinion and second is mine?Since 'More people came than expected' is correct, why is 'More people came than invited' incorrect?
For some reason, "There are more people than expected" sounds good, but "There are more people than invited" sounds less good. I can't put my finger on the reason at present. As for the grammaticality, there have been a lot of opinions. Someone more interested than I am could look for some evidence with authority and an explanation.
