I don't want to fall out with Clive and Eddie but I think Michael's
point below is the salient one.
Up until the review, the SWF was on the side of phonetic, introducing
medial 'gh' swings it the other way in order to please 24 users of
Cornish. I think this was the highest number of responses for anything
in the Review but it is still a very small proportion of the Cornish
speaking community.
Agan Tavas decided at the AGM that rather than introduce many of the
inconsistencies recommended by the Review Board it was better to leave
the SWF as it is.
