Cases that claim they don't help are just as unsupported? Having the font as an option won't hurt anyone for sure.
- Someone1234 8y ago> Cases that claim they don't help are just as unsupported? Except there's a study looking at it, with 12 participants, that found it didn't help. That's the best data we have, and current data suggests it doesn't help. If you can find a study about Dyslexic fonts which supports their usage that would be compelling. Until then, that's what we have.
- majewsky 8y agoNo, current data suggests that we don't know. Also, the study found that it didn't help the participants.

- majewsky 8y agoYou appeat to suffer from some sort of horror vacui: Why must we attempt to infer something from what-is-basically-nothing? Isn't it more honest to just stick with "we don't know" in the face of so little evidence?
