what the hell is cursive?!

"Rirruto?"
"Those are Z's"
"Well they look like R's to me."
"That's not fair! Rizzuto's not even a word, he's a baseball player! I hate school! I'm never coming back!"
Would you like to try the word "buzz"?
They're all easy to read when you know cursive.
When you know the right cursive. We used slightly clearer letter shapes in Australia in the 80s
Though knowing any cursive makes it easier to decode unfamiliar ones
Cursive f is actually way to high the whole point of cursive is to learn to write fast and cursive f is slower. I'm sure a large amount of people aren't even aware it's an f ( the middle right two)
It's really no more time consuming than any other letter. It might look a bit bigger, bit it's just two loops, which is a very quick and natural movement that you'll be doing a lot if you write in cursive.
It's more about following the flow of the lines than the size of the letters. Each letter should feed into the next one, so you'll barely need to take your hand off the paper for the same word. Even if you choose to make an especially "high f", that'd still take less than a second of you know what you're doing.
(Also, as has already been pointed out, second one is a J)
