Yeah several of those letters seem pretty inefficient. I stopped using cursive as soon as the teachers didn’t care (I think 4th grade?), but I wonder if we’d been taught a better system if I would’ve kept at it. My handwriting always was kind of a mess though.
Yeah it was particularly frustrating being taught how to write in cursive and how to touch type in the same school year… especially when no one could give me a straight answer as to why I had to keep banging my head against the handwriting of all kinds when it was clear I could do the work just fine if i could just fucking type the thing.
the system of cursive letters you linked is what im referring to as a “bullshit ass writing system”.
