Actually no. There are computer programs to translate in both directions and almost everyone can read SoundSpel with no trouble even the first time they see it. But no one proposes to force anybody to write in SoundSpel. It might take over after a hundred years but more likely both systems would continue in use amiably, like British and American spelling. (What, it doesn't bother you that the Brits write honour, colour, plough and theatre? When you read a book out of England you don't even notice? Exactly -- I've never heard anyone comment about that, let alone complain. And after a short period of initial shock it will be the same with SoundSpel.)Look:
Akchualy no. Thair ar compueter proegrams to translaet in boeth direcshuns and allmoest evrywun can reed Soundspel with no trubl eeven th ferst tiem thae see it. But no wun propoezes to fors enybody to riet in Soundspel. It miet taek oever after a hundred yeers but mor liekly boeth sistems wuud continue in ues amiably, liek British and American speling. (Whut, it duzn't bother U that th Brits riet Onor, colour, plough and theeater? When U reed a buuk out of England U don't eeven noetis? Exactly -- I'v never herd enywun coment about that, let aloen complaen. And after a short peeriod of inishal shok it wil be th saem with Soundspel.)

In my opinion ... You're hearing needs to be checked ... you can't seem to hear your village calling ...
