Downvoted but reversals and dyslexia used to be thought of as linked for a long time. These days, not so much, it's just because they're shit at writing (dysgraphia) and processing. They don't even see the letters backwards.

Anecdotally, and perhaps ironically, they were right, I am dyslexic, and I definitely do perceive letters as permuted quite often. The second link really chuffs me because it's clearly a non-dyslexic person openly speculating as if they're authoritative, but this theory of "3d processing" words jives with neither other literature about dyslexia, nor my own experience. I'm pretty sure this is just someone showerthinking about a disorder. The errors I make are pretty incompatible with seeing whole words from the wrong "angle"; letters are switched, sometimes even between adjacent words (I might see "angle" as "angel", or "and rain" as "an drain"), similar graphs are misread as each other (the classic example is [b / d / p / q], sometimes also g depending on font; [w / m / E], [e / a], [T / L], so on), words can be entirely displaced elsewhere in a sentence...

So yes, like, I definitely do see some letters backwards or upside down or mirrored, etc.

Mostly, I was trying to be funny. It did occur to me as a possibility, but I didn't comment it in a serious way. I was diagnosed with dyslexia as a kid, but don't seem to have that problem anymore. Either way, I have no idea where the original or any interpretation of it comes from.

People did not like it, though.

It's fiiine, I thought it was funny and also possibly true
