Weak all around for a few reasons:
1. Guy uses the ampersand as justification, yet how often do you replace "and" with an ampersand in the course of typesetting body copy? Ampersands seem to only show up in titles, headlines, proper names, and posters about ampersands.
2. What i_monk said about thorn. If you really want to rock out with your "th" out, then thorn it up OE style.
3. Saturn would like to have a word:
4. Reminds me of the nonsense the folks behind Curator's Code (http://www.curatorscode.org/) tried to push because they felt "via" and "h/t" were too laborious to type.
5. Better yet, reminds me of the Arthur's Head Screwdriver:
6. If we're going to indulge alphabetical efficiencies, for those of us who use the modern German alphabet, I'd rather eliminating the capital "I" in favor of a lowercase "i" for standalone use and the purpose of contractions move to the front of the line in widespread acceptance.
7. The alphabet needs another letter like the tech industry needs another pointless app.
