I is a vowel too but you sure can!

Edit: also I noticed you dropped one 'y' but not the others. Is this an accident or some subtlety to do with y's 'semi-vowel' status? To be discussed.

I had to leave most of first letters, and sometimes if all vowels are removed there's nothing left

But yeah, we need a committee and come up with a standard for that
