Any dyslexic people here? I am not, but I understand mirror images of the same symbol can be problematic, and this alphabet is built out of them.

  This alphabet forgoes almost every ergonomic feature of most alphabets. It is going to be very difficult to read quickly, or while e.g. driving, or even just to scan a page. There is a reason that historical alphabets quickly developed highly distinct symbols, and it is only very loosely connected to the symbols represented at first (e g. Hebrew י representing a hand). And you'll notice that these forms - across most language familys - took only a few hundred years to develop, and have remained largely unchanged for two millennia. The modern forms of most language letters - at least the European and Middle Eastern ones that I am familiar with - are nearly perfect for their purpose. At least, the letters are ))

    Copying from above, not for laziness (maybe) but because it is the same answer :) Totally true. Indeed the goal of creating a conscript, at least for me, is to have fun and be able to keep something like a journal that would look funny and "cryptic" at a quick glance. Maybe one day I will manage to create a cursive that is also nice to see and easy to remember : )

  Good point, will be taken into account for my next one!
