@PaulWermer @globalmuseum hm, most of us learned the meaning of at least 26 letters + 9 numbers + at the very minimum a dozen other common symbols, sure, it's work to learn that new set, but i'm sure anyone can, with a bit of practice, like with a game dedicated to learning that system, and playing it a few hours over a few weeks.
And there is a clear logic to it, each corner represent an order of magnitude, and the symbol in that corner represents the value for it, so you learn 9 shapes.
@tshirtman @globalmuseum you make it sound viable. I need to take another look
