yeah, you're not wrong, ch and kh are both extremely bad transliterations of het and soft kaf but what the fuck else are we gonna do

the phonology is different and so is the orthography. these are just non-compatible systems of both speech and writing and I'm really willing to let slide some inconsistent transliterations because of that.

let's cut to the real chase: the particular obsession with "vibration" and tonality and all of that shit is dumb and bad and I will stan for a vernacularization of the high strange all day every day.

and there's a reason for it too, which is that I really do want people who think they're "doing a working" to go and stand in the Denny's parking lot at 1:00am and say in plain fucking english the dumb shit they think they're supposed to say. maybe that will clarify things.

it's the only way things are gonna improve around here. obscurantism and dead language is the oldest trick in the book. let's not deceive ourselves EXCEPT in the ways we intend to. selective adoption of tactical falsehoods is how we work around here.

probably in practice the best term to use for a selectively adopted tactical falsehood is "sacred truth"
