Hello Chris,

No need to apologise. I guessed you were making a point humorously.
Your post was the ideal message to reply to from my PoV. I should have
put a smiley in to denote I'd seen the joke.
Text speak came about for similar reasons, I suppose; High cost of
texts (in the early days) and limited texting line length. So,
it was a way of getting longer messages into limited space. Nowadays,
both restrictions are, largely, gone but 'txtspk' persists in some
quarters.
