Conditionals: と良いだ/です should be wrong?


It is said that the と conditional must not be used where the main clause
expresses any of the following: an intention, a suggestion, a command, an
obligation, a request, etc. However, I've encountered `と良いです` a lot. E.g.
`すぐに薬を飲むと良いですよ。` Should this be considered grammatically wrong, but in fact
readily acceptable in reality?

*Trivial: I'm trying to tackle this beast called conditionals in Japanese, and the fact that various sources I've read online seem to have contradictory explanations/definitions isn't helping. I've looked all over the Net.




It's no problem as it is. While the whole sentence implies recommendation, the
main clause 良い itself is not any of modal expressions you listed but a
statement, literally, "if you take medicine immediately, that's good".
