It's mostly an issue with English cursive. A lot of styles are just not great.

In Eastern Slavic countries, you are expected to learn to write in cursive and use it in typical writing. Writing in block letters (outside of official forms) is considered to be a sign of illiteracy.

And it really is faster, once you get some practice.
