The 'Chinese' Theory: For and Against

[Jorge_Stolfi]

Seeing the deliberate spreading of falsehoods, even after I linked an academic source clearly explaining the subject in simple words, is saddening. But I cannot do anything to stop this, so it’s better I just quit.

Just because you think I am wrong about the dots on the "i"?  

Too bad.  You won't even try to explain the OTHER errors in that rubric?  Or WHY the Proofreading scribe felt it necessary to correct those "totally optional features"?  

Or consider the fact that different types of books could have vastly different quality standards, with respect to both handwriting and spelling?  So what was normal in notebooks or You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.was evidently not acceptable on "industrially produced" books like that one?  A fact that that "academic source" apparently fails to note...

Or note that the very source you quoted above says 

Dotted ‘i’s [...] are a feature typical of Germany and Central Europe.

Which I suppose includes Switzerland.

All the best, --stolfi
