Good!  Almost the entire point of Lojban and Loglan is to create a language
unlike any natural one and see what happens.  Trying to make Lojban more like
widely-spoken languages defeats the whole point of attempting to isolate a
Sapir-Whorf effect or whatever it is we're supposed to be doing.  Differences
in orthography force learners to think about the language more and, hopefully,
improve the way they think in general.
