Reading is hard. To use one example, a 2003 study in the US found that "21% to 23% of adult Americans were not 'able to locate information in text'"
The idea is to sell advertising inside numeric shapes, probably permanently, to the highest bidders. In this way, a man topping up his hummer at a petrol
station can simply watch the rolling total until it shows "Pepsi, 2 Vodkas, and a Trojan", then pay with his colourful, sponsored money of course.

I would say, how about educate the people so they CAN
"locate information in text"? Pandering to the (unfortunately
dropping) low levels of education doesn't help. Otherwise,
we'll end up with plants craving Brawndo. |

To be fair, some text doesn't convey much information. |
