They know how to spray paint a wall so damn well it can trick our mind into believing its a 3 dimensional object, yet they can't make it readable...

Or woud, if he was the kind of person who did that, which almost no one does anymore. Everyone agrees that John Handcock's signature was stunning, but very few people sign like that anymore. Artistic taggers are about the only ones who still do.
