It's no uglier than German or English. The "stupid" notation was made for _mass_ appeal; not for linguists. Johnny Galacticon isn't interested in the IPA; he wants to know how to say "today is a good day to die". Klingon romanisation scheme does a pretty good job, all things taken into consideration.
