If we are going to do radical alphabet redesigns, I suggest coming up with new designs for each of the 26 letters so that it only takes one stroke to write each. That would probably result in an alphabet that would be more difficult to read, but it would be optimized for the number-of-strokes-for-average-english-writing heuristic.
