It matters because the words have different meanings.
When I'm reading, I interpret the word for its literal meaning - I don't think of all the phonetically equivalent words. Once I do a double-take, I can realize what the person meant, but that's extra effort on my part.
Why not just be literate?

But if the words are eliminated and you didn't know they existed you wouldn't have a problem. When I read hello I don't read 'H E L L O' I read it as hello. You could spell it as helo and get the same result

Edited by pValue2010: 4/26/2017 12:04:02 PMOk, sure, but that's a pointless hypothetical. When I read a word, I don't concentrate on how it sounds; I immediately interpret it for its definition. Misspelling "their" as "there" isn't merely a misspelling; it's using a completely different word with a different meaning.
-
So when someone is speaking to you do you get confused when they say 'look over there' ? Why would saying 'look over their' confuse you?
-
When I'm interpreting language through sound, spelling obviously isn't an issue since there is none...

I can read it fine after taking a moment to realize the numbers represent letters, but I think you missed my point. When a misspelling results in a completely new word with a different meaning, it can cause confusion. Correct grammar can be the difference between knowing your shit, or knowing you're shit.
-
But if that's the problem we need hundreds of new words, just look at the multiple definitions of 'of'
-
"Of" may have different meanings, but "their" will never mean "they are." Even if it's never been an issue for you, surely you can understand my point?
-
I see the point but don't see why it's better, maybe it's because I've grown up in Australia and every word has 3 different meanings but I just prefer a context based language, we have that verbally just not written
