My 3rd grade teacher wrote something like this regarding my handwriting in my final report card:

We've done all we can for toast0. But he'll have a secretary so it'll be fine

I never did get to have a secretary, but thanks to COVID learning losses, I do manage to have a lot better penmanship than about half of kids going into high school this year. :)

Yes, I thought something which could make my handwriting more like a font would be useful.

I have long theorized that it is inscrutable for a reason: as a bar to laypeople reading a/o editing prescriptions.

Turning "30 pills of Pennicillin, refill 0 times" into "30 pills of OxyContin, refill 3 times" is much harder when you can't even figure out which part is the drug name.

(Kids who are about to point out this couldn't work: Prescriptions used to be hand-written on paper, and never checked by the then-inexistent interwebs.)
