Perhaps not, but it did occur to me for one that Cree script users
ought to suffer more from dyslexia. When I first enccountered the
term, over 30 years ago, reversal problems were being presented as
the chief issues, whence jokes such as 'Dyslexics Rule KO'. On the
other hand, perhaps reversal errors are less catastrophic in Cree,
as at least they don't destroy the sequence of consonants.
