Teague was using anagrams. Given the preponderance of vowels and the high level of repetition, shuffling the above letters doesn't do much to increase their readibility.

Register or Login to view.That is indeed an interesting idea which deserves a closer look, but I'm curious how we would work with "oue" or "uoiia" which are all vowels - I don't know any word in Latin, German, or English that has all those vowels.
Also, in your example, many of the words are just missing one vowel (can, get, job etc.) and the letter order is maintained. But in the Stellar sentence, one would have to argue that almost all the consonants have been removed, and anagrams are also used. That is a much more difficult scenario.
(Also: for the non-native English speakers, the sentence says "If you can read this, you can become a sec(retary) and get a good job")
