Just because I could contortedly decipher Ladle Rat Rotten Hut does not make a case for it being done through the use of phonetics, as this was not the case. It was more through a process of disassociative logic than anything like phontics.

This is just semantics. Regardless if it was phonetics or "a process of disassociative logic", the point is that Ladle Rat Rotten Hut was a close enough approximation to Little Red Riding Hood. To use your own words, what if any is your point unless it's simply to disagree? Maybe you just like criticizing others to make yourself feel superior?

Ok, now here we can wrestle with semantics if that's your bag but the position as stated in my previous post is that letters were indeed missing that would have allowed the authors point to have come across more clearly. The author instead chose to utilize words that will not phonetically produce an association between the ideas in his head and what appears in print OR if spoken so essentially the resultant word choices failed to produce the desired result.

The same argument could be said of the use of "wetow' in your original post, but as it is a matter of opinion (even though you state your opinion as if it is a fact) I will respect your right to have a different opinion to others.

I was never claiming to utilize words that exist as did the author, though indeed some of what I used were in fact words, so what if any is your point unless it's simply to disagree

My bad. I simply had not read your post carefully enough. I had assumed you were attempting to hold BlahX3 and Ladle Rat Rotten Hut to the same standard you had used, but I see now you were holding them to some arbitrary standard you devised afterwards. I still do not see what the author has claimed that he has not done. He has used other English words to convey the story if the words he would normally use were unavailable. You claimed that "though there are mostly common words used, not all are", but the author never claimed that he would use common words, but all the words he uses are words in the English language.
