I once consulted my aunt (PHD English professor) for a small stakes bet ($5) because a friend and I were discussing whether or not letters have any fundamental rules on how they are written.
Turns out, no, they don’t. I.E. if I write: Hello there, ¥¶®×°∆| Kenobi. Aslongas"¥¶®×°∆|" is understood as “General” than according to (american) English it is written “correctly”. There’s no edict that states a " T" must be written in that shape, therefore, any symbol that’s understood intent wise is correct.
I lost that bet, cause WTF, how is that acceptable??
