Every once in a while I sometimes think about remaking the English writing system, as is normal I'm sure😅, and I wonder what would be the most useful revision of punctuation or phonetic.

why not just say "he did go" vs "he didn't go"? it's not that they are different rather that !("he went") doesn't exist.

"He went" is much more common, and has no negative.
