I must say I find this spelling rather easy to read, and less
ugly to the eye than many others I've seen. "Díd" required a
double-take, though.
Unfortunately, this reform wouldn't remove spelling mistakes.
For example, Americans would have to guess whether it's "lâst"
or "last", since this distinction is purely British. Also,
you wrote "to some" as "tu sum", which is clearly not phonemic
spelling...
