Cursive is dumb anyways. Let's have a second way to write that's harder To do, less legible, and designed for old school fountain pens no one uses that have difficulty with upstrokes

Harder to read, but easier to write.

And not that it matters but there are still fountain pen users, makers, influencers and all that, it's a niche hobby now.

So, so much harder to write. Painful, tedious, and unnatural.

I mean I don't see how? it's the equivalent of swiping vs typing on the phone

Maybe I’m weird, but I still prefer to type vs swipe too. Swipe is super inaccurate and I spend more time fixing errors than typing

And you make more errors with swiping than if you had a physical keyboard.
