I have no idea. But clearly, those of us who read Braille or grew
up reading print have an advantage, since we don't tend to use
phonetic spellings. Unfortunately, many English words are not
spelled how they sound. Brandon, you are right that many people
higher up make spelling mistakes, but that doesn't stop your own
writing from being judged by those same people. Annoying, but there
it is. Other people can't spell well, so why should I? That's a
great attitude!
If the goal is to communicate instructions and explain procedures
in a clear manner, to users with varying abilities, clear concise
writing is the way to accomplish that. Fuzzy inaccurate writing is
a result of fuzzy inaccurate thinking.
