I try and pretend the spelling oddities are a feature and not a bug. If you can recognize the language of origin of a given word, it helps you know how to pronounce it,and often the definition.
Needing etymology to guess at pronunciation is why it’s bullshit.
People have tried to fix it. Their partial success just created more exceptions.
