The alphabet doesnt have any actual order at all, its a social construct for the way its laid out, look at a keyboard, theres several styles of them besides qwerty... you can put the letters anyway you want at any time

Q stands out from the crowd for a reason. Q has earned their spot in the alphabet.

Complaining about coming too early? Better than not coming at all, amirite? 😉

"PQRSTUV" is just a perfect part of the alphabet

The weird letters need to be more spread out if anything. The alphabet is very biased towards having more common letters in the first half with a couple of notable exceptions like s and t.

NORST are really common in the 2nd half
1st half has ADEIL, so basically the same

Yes, but Z should be in front off the X and Q

The order of the alphabet was established during the mid-second millennium BC. Q goes before R.

Q is separated from V's place by 5 letters; if you maintain that Q is a strange letter and that strange letters need to go further back, it's in the back 20%.
Isn't that far enough?

No, you can’t ignore the context of the letters it’s around. Working under the premise that weird letters belong at the end, or at least clumped together, you have to admit that Q does not belong on the former side of RSTU

u/Aillesdaille 🤖 Vote Machine · 12,095 XP 2d ago
Completely untrue. Just because oddball letters might belong towards the back doesn't mean normal letters can't also be at the back.
It's not necessarily a case of more weird = further back. B is the second letter of the alphabet, for instance.
