You must know how to at least read cursive, otherwise you will see a word like minimum written in cursive and think it’s just a scribble.

The point is that you almost never see text written in cursive anymore.

For me, I encounter things written in Chinese way more often than I see cursive. I don't know how to read Chinese, but I don't really worry about not being able to.

  • My eInk notepad recognizes my attempt at cursive surprisingly well. Maybe one could one day read cursive with something akin to Google lens.

I could imagine a web page saying "you must be over 50." to enter this page. A capture saying Please read this cursive script and type in what it says...
