What was typoglycemia? What are you talking about? You should have given us an example to make your point.

Seriously, as someone who had taught her children to read, I think only a person who has already learned to read would be able to read with the letters messed up.

Yep.
You have to be able to read the correct way before your brain can process the incorrect spelling.

Well, there is an additional dimension to this. I was able to read, comfortably, the entire post, part of it quite quickly, yet I find that obvious misspellings bring my reading to a halt, why typos remain mostly invisible.
Why is that?
