    You’re right, it is. But language shifts in populations in ways that enhance communication. One person using letters that nobody else uses makes communication of ideas more difficult.

    Not only that, but they’re only choosing to use some Middle English letters, and not any other rules of Middle English grammar or spelling.

    They can use whatever language they want, but if it’s too much effort for people to understand, they’re more likely to be ignored.

      Let alone if you feel like going out of ð way to justify shitting on oðer people’s innocent fun.
