I had always hoped that some mechanism along the lines of optical scanning-to-text could be devised to read these tablets instead of having scholars painstakingly transcribe each stroke. There would still have to be human intervention, but I'll bet the work would be speeded up in light-year terms.

speeded up in light-year terms. Light years measure distance, not time.
