I wonder what you'd get if you designed an orthography (like, alphabet and spelling and such) for English that's specifically /for English/, instead of using a bodged-together hack of an alphabet for Latin.

I'm sure people have done it, I'm just kind of curious what choices linguists would make in that process and why.

@aescling we have, but we've never studied them! That does seem like a logical starting point, though.
