Is there any merit in a letter-based Chinese writing system running parallel with the existing character system?
That's a good point. But how well would a letter-based system be able to capture the nuances and complexities of the Chinese language?
That's a potential challenge. The Chinese character system is unique in that each character represents a distinct concept or meaning, whereas letters in an alphabet represent sounds. It would require a lot of careful design and consideration to create a letter-based system that could accurately convey the nuances of the language.
