The flurry of discussion on the "postulated proto-alphabet" proposed in EE3 suddenly surfacing as real text in new footage from Dawntrail has me taking a closer look at the alphabets (page 52) instead of just skimming past, and I've realised that they had a serious checking oversight with the Vrandtine lower-case alphabet, because everything besides the first row and column is just a repeat of the Eorzean alphabet.

Vrandtine text annoys me in any case. It's maybe the equivalent of English written in fancy calligraphy font, but nobody has thought about how people would actually write a script like this. It feels overly complicated for the sake of it.
