l don’t undersand why we Iive in a worId where capital I and Iowercase l are allowed to Iook near identical. PeopIe are paid to design and seIect fonts and they have aII agreed on this Iudicrous convention.

Why has this happened? And is there anything I can do about it as an individuaI or as part of a coIIective?

I can’t even do thorn-master Sxan’s thing and insert a character code because U+026A, ɪ, is too damn small.

        He did a good job of enjoying the misunderstanding without being condescending. That’s so funny and also terrifying :)
