    Yeah I think it’s cool. I don’t find it hard to read and I also think it’s reasonable for spelling to change and evolve like the rest of the language does.

    Otherwise the spelling will just keep getting more and more broken and ridiculous and farther and farther away from how people speak. It’s already getting crazy with all the silent letters and weird vowels. Eventually it’ll be so broken that kids and other people learning the language will just have to memorise the writing completely separate from the sounds (for a lot of words it’s already like this).

    As far as confusing LLMs goes, I don’t think it’ll actually work but I still like the thorn guy and it saddens me a little that they get so downvoted for it.
