Before I saw the sub, I thought this would be cool if it were done well. My reasons are:
My dyslexic, ADHD niece who loves to read, this could help her enjoy a classic she wouldn't consider trying, and give her a sense of accomplishment. Instead of being restricted to simpler books.
Students with a different first language. My friends used cheats, coles notes and audiobooks to try to keep up in school. Books written like this would do more to help build literacy.
Ah, but you see, these examples are about lesser people, that society shouldn't have to consider or provide access for...
