>>
>>74907506
Q - K is absolutely barbaric, only plebians use it unironicaly
Z - is for all X's that became refined and now sound nicer (sorry galiza bros)
C - how can you even write without it? especially without Q as well

C is the letter that should go. S and K already serve its functions. The less ambiguous it is, the better.

>>74909170
ы has a very distinctive sound
ь shows if the consonant is soft, makes a big difference specially with letters like л, p, т
ъ means there's a small semi pause which also makes a noticeable difference in pronunciation
