It would be far more consistent with the pronunciation of other similar words.
A choir is a chorus of singers.
It comes from the Greek root khoros.
Although it comes from the old French word, quer, its roots are more in the present spelling.
Quer, not to be confused with those that make up a choir, queers.
And see, this it’s why it’s choir.
Thanks to dwarf fortress I know a quire is a medieval folded paper book
By the time I got paper things going, everyone was dying to were creatures. Did make soap though, if only that could clean bite wounds enough, alas.

Mate just use IPA, at that point.
IPA is less readable, also this is an orthographic alphabet, the true letter count is much smaller, and it actually gets even smaller if you use the “sloppy” version, which is basically just grabbing an Alphabet language Gboard for þ ð ŋ and ſ, using ue oe and ae as needed, and using u o i e a as you would their dotted (or undotted in i’s case) counterparts and just hoping context makes clear what the literal text doesn’t necessarily.
You designed this for GBoard?
That explains it, I guess…
Would you believe me if I told you that the dot letters were actually what made up the majority of what isn’t in the keyboard normally?
This is awful and you need to stop right now.
Qit haṙcıŋ muı tcil bro.
Went through the whole thing expecting to speak German, was very disappointed.
I mean English is a germanic language, not too surprising how german phonemic spelling would look considering how much of our fucked up current system is owed to trying to make loan words consistent with their language of origin.
That… That is glorious.
may i…inquire… why you believe this?
You mean like a cuirass?
Curious the query as curiass.
Or in Shavian, 𐑒𐑢𐑲𐑼
But why not Quoir so everyone is slightly uncomfortable when reading it?
Why not just start pronouncing it shwar instead?
Or kor like in german
That’s also a possibility
