That's for sure. It was particularly unfortunate to use lower case "l" and
upper case "I"
HolQeD, the journal of the KLI, for some unknown reason, prints Klingon in a
sans-serif font in which those two are nearly indistinguishable.
They should really drop all the useless capitals. None of them make a
distinction except "Q" vs. "q", and one of those could just as easily have been "k".
