OK, but the major advantage you&#x27;ve suggested for Chinese typography, that the meaning of written words drifts much less over hundreds of year by allowing fast-change sound to change independently, is much less valuable today, right?  Modern tech means we expect less drift overall, and less problems for a given amount of drift.  Furthermore, the cost of drift is not felt by the people using the language at the time, so this advantage won&#x27;t influence the choices people make.
