# But then it would be pronounced 'bootiful'
The phonetic alphabet would have to change as well, we'd actually end up with MORE letters to make a 'u' either a 'oo' or a 'ew' or a 'eau' or whatver sound. We'd end up with more accents on vowels. If anything it would just make things more complicated.

Sounds to me like a dyslexic person got bullied at school for being unable to spell and is now trying to make the whole world like her. While we're at it let's force feed Big Macs to skinny people.
