I looked at only one specimen, assuming it to be representative. What I
saw consisted almost completely of vertical and horizontal strokes, and it
occurred to me immediately that it should render quite nicely on
relatively-coarse-pitch dot-matrix displays.

IIrc, over a million people use it, and I hadn't heard of it until these
recent posts. Golly.
