@Halfjack writing about about transliteration in fantasy alphabets, using Tengwar as an example: if you write "l a u g h" using Tengwar, I'm going to cry because I learned English the hard way and the English spelling will surely make all elves cry. And if Fëanor can cry then so can I. And you. https://vsca.blog/2019/04/18/transliteration/

In which I misunderstand someone entirely, explain why I got excited at someone else, and in the process break down something potentially useful
