could google count all the instances each individual letter appears on the web and then rank them by most use? i had this strange thought that if an article is written with words that make more use of the most popular letter people will probably read it faster. if such assumption holds true then a new software algorithm can be made to suggest edits on long texts for faster reading.

Why do we pronounce W a double U and not a double V or a double Me? W looks like an M inverted. A Double Me also rhymes better. Say out loud the alphabet:
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v Double Me x y z
See? It rhymes better, doesn't it?
