Turns out that cursive is just a terrible way of writing. Yes, some people think it looks fancy but in terms of functionality it's absolute garbage.
What?
It's hard to write and hard to read. The forced joining of every single letter in a word quicky makes it unintelligible unless your handwriting is perfect or you write very slowly
Cursive was a useless idea.
its so much faster and gentler on your wrists. Cursive is excellent for note taking and essay writing.
I find my printing to be awful and others find it hard to read. Despite spending decades doing it. But cursive took little effort to learn and I can easily improve my form by filling a page with circles and half-sized circles. As a result my cursive is even, easy to read and write.
