Thanks for this link. (I’ll probably try to edit the thing.)
That’s the latest jargon. The essential point is that a word is treated as a diagram or graphic design, like a currency symbol or &. It has no phonetic content. You have to memorize it or you don’t.
From 1932 to 2000, reading was taught through the use of sight-words. Not the alphabet or the sounds. Children memorized every word as a sight-word. So we have massive functional illiteracy.... and dyslexia.
