Poor Engels doesn't get enough credit for having to edit all this shit. Imagine what the 3rd. volume of Kapital was like.

Jenny Marx also doesn't get enough credit, she had to transcribe this stuff over and over

I've read that people with ADHD have awful handwriting, but I don't know if that's factual. I like to think mine isn't so bad, but then again, I'm biased.

A lot of us do; dyspraxia and motor dysgraphia go hand-in-hand (pun not intended), and both are pretty common in people on the autism spectrum as well as with ADHD. My handwriting is fucking terrible and has been since I was a kid, to the point where I was often punished over getting poor penmanship grades on my elementary school report card.
