Which still doesn't really answer why use them. Why make it intentionally harder to understand your comments? What's the upside to it?

Edit: I've looked at your previous comments and saw you explain it to someone else where they've come from and your preference, but I feel like if you have to explain it to everyone it can't possibly be a useful way of communicating.

And even after the explanation (and I already knew about the letters), it's still expends enough energy to parse for me to not bother.

Edit: I left out the word 'energy' because apparently my brain is skipping grooves this morning.
